2.30

兼中至（有句中來）兩刃交鋒不須避（主客不相觸。　「彼彼不傷也。」「箭箭相抂，脈脈不斷。」　「不相敵者又恁麼則却不相管。」）好手猶如火裏蓮（壞不得。　「誰是得便者？」　「弱於阿誰？」又「恁麼則終不作第二人也。」）宛然自有衝天氣（不從人得。又「恁麼則不借也。」　「非本有。」又「恁麼則己亦不存。」　「非己有。」）。

Reaching within the integrated (coming from within phrases of existence):
When two blades cross, there is no need to avoid them; (Host and guest do not clash. 'Neither harms the other.' 'Arrow meets arrow, pulse continuous without break.' 'Those who are not rivals, yet if so, then do not concern themselves with each other.')
A master hand is like a lotus in fire. (It cannot be destroyed. 'Who is the one who finds the opening?' 'Weaker than whom?' Also: 'If so, then in the end one does not act as a second person.')
Naturally, of itself, it possesses an air that pierces the sky. (Not obtained from others. Also: 'If so, then do not borrow.' 'Not originally existent.' Also: 'If so, then oneself does not remain.' 'Not possessed by oneself.')
