The words of Great Master Zhizhe and Chan Master \[Yongming Yan\]shou are found in Vice Minister Wang Minzhong's \*Collection Resolving Doubts and Pointing Directly to the Pure Land\*, from the Song dynasty. The Vice Minister's given name was Gu. Among the gentry, he was recognized as a transcendent. The Realized Person Zhongli \[Quan\] once gave him a poem, saying: / 'The wind-blown lamp, the water's foam—each to each we grieve; / Unwilling to abandon worldly glory, how can one preserve oneself? / Seize boldly the pearl hidden beneath the jaw; / Since the Way is within your own body, whom else would you seek? / With your lofty talent you are truly suited to the bones of a transcendent; / Your luminous wisdom shines like the great precious tortoise. / For half of these blue mountains there is nowhere to buy; / I make a pact with you to walk hand in hand and discourse upon the Inaudible and Invisible.' / Viewed from this, one can see that the Vice Minister was no ordinary man; moreover, one knows all the more that the Western Pure Land is truly where one should turn one's heart. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 11.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1970.11.7) - [Next: 11.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1970.11.9) - [Up: 11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1970.11) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1970~en-mt.11.8) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1970.11.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1970.11.8) · Pramāṇa
