瑞州洞山良价禪師語錄 1.97

1.97

師上堂云：「道無心合人，人無心合道，欲識箇中意，一老一不老。」（後僧問曹山：「如何是一老？」曹山云：「不扶持。」僧云：「如何是一不老？」曹山云：「枯木。」僧又舉似逍遙忠，忠云：「三從六義。」）

The Master ascended the hall and said, "The Way has no mind to match people; people have no mind to match the Way. If you wish to know the meaning within this, one is old and one is not old." (Later, a monk asked Caoshan, "What is the one that is old?" Caoshan said, "Not supporting." The monk said, "What is the one that is not old?" Caoshan said, "A withered tree." The monk also brought this up to Xiaoyao Zhong; Zhong said, "The three submissions and six principles.")
