黃龍慧南禪師語錄 1.173

1.173

「人人盡握靈蛇之珠，箇箇自抱荊山之璞，不自回光返照，懷寶迷邦。不見道：應耳時，若空谷，大小音聲無不足；應眼時，如千日，萬像不能逃影質。擬議若從聲色求，達磨西來也大屈。」

“Everyone grasps the pearl of the sacred serpent; each one embraces the uncarved jade of Mount Jing. Failing to reflect back the light upon oneself, one cherishes a treasure yet goes astray in the realm. Have you not heard it said: ‘When responding to the ear, it is like an empty valley: great and small sounds are never lacking; when responding to the eye, it is like a thousand suns: the ten thousand forms cannot escape their shadows and substance.’ If you deliberate and seek it from sound and form, Bodhidharma's coming from the West was indeed a great injustice!”
