2.43

天得一,地得一,王得一兮無等匹,谷得一兮歸巨溟,應見三山皆岌岌。一得一,又何必,今古不曾居丈室,千華影裏復是誰,八面風清照紅日。一禪一禪須記取,象骨齡難兮且相許,負石投針忽載來,拂袖雙雙便回去。

Heaven attained the One; earth attained the One; / The king attained the One, peerless without equal! / The valleys attained the One, returning to the vast ocean; / One should see the three mountains all steep and towering. / The One attains the One—why should it be necessary? / Past and present, he never resided in the abbot’s quarters. / Amid the shadows of a thousand flowers, who is it again? / The wind is fresh on eight sides, shining upon the red sun. / Yi the Chan practitioner, Yi the Chan practitioner, you must remember: / The age of Xianggu was difficult, yet he permitted it. / Carrying a stone and casting a needle, suddenly brought forth; / Brushing the sleeves, both together just return.
