2.17
Ascending the hall, he said: "Buddhas and patriarchs produce enemies; awakening to the Way soils one with mud and dirt. People of non-action and no-affairs are deaf and blind to sounds and sights. And tell me, how is it right? Like this will not do; not like this will not do; both like this and not like this will not do at all. If suddenly a fellow were to come forth and say, 'Like this will do; not like this will do; both like this and not like this will all do,' I would just say to him, 'I know that you are making a living inside a ghost cave!'"
