2.37

問:「如何是彼師所墮?」曰:「田舍翁入聚落,眼耳鼻舌身意俱失却。」云:「如何是隨類墮?」曰:「不斷聲色。」又曰:「不失香味。」云:「如何是彼師?」曰:「六處。」云:「如何是汝亦隨墮?」曰:「存。」云:「存個甚麼?」曰:「不得動著,又不離聲色。」

A monk asked, "What is that which that teacher falls into?" The Master said, "A rustic entering a hamlet loses eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind altogether." The monk said, "What is the fall of following among kinds?" The Master said, "Not severing sounds and forms." He also said, "Not losing fragrances and flavours." The monk said, "What is that teacher?" The Master said, "The six sense bases." The monk said, "What is 'you also fall accordingly'?" The Master said, "Remaining." The monk said, "What remains?" The Master said, "One must not move, yet one does not leave sounds and forms."
