### [11.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.11.3)

住東京天寧寺小參，師云：「一見更不再見，今已再見；一說更不重說，今已重說。未有長行而不住途中，無這箇消息；未有長住而不行屋裏，沒此葛藤。直得二途俱不涉，去住得縱橫，其住也千人萬人羅籠不得，其去也等閑坐斷一切人舌頭，假使親到這箇田地，更須知有照用同時人，境俱奪向上一竅始得。若論向上一竅，佛祖不立，凡聖杳絕，淨裸裸沒承當，赤灑灑無回互，正當恁麼時作麼生？但願春風齊著力，一時吹入此中來。」復頌云：「明珠在掌，有功者賞，長老新入院，都盧無伎倆，不立趙州關，各自著槽𣚿。」

> At an informal gathering upon residing at Tianning Monastery in the Eastern Capital, the Master said: 'One sight, never to be seen again, yet now seen again; one explanation, never to be spoken again, yet now spoken again. Never has there been one constantly travelling who did not abide on the road—there is no such news; never has there been one constantly abiding who did not travel in the house—there are no such entanglements. When one directly involves neither of the two ways, going and abiding are unconstrained: when abiding, thousands and myriads cannot cage one; when going, with ease one cuts off the tongues of all people. Even if you personally arrive at this ground, you must still know there is the aperture of the transcendent, where illumination and function are simultaneous and person and environment are both snatched away, before you will attain it. If one speaks of the aperture of the transcendent, Buddhas and patriarchs are not established, commoners and sages are utterly vanished, clean and naked without anything to undertake, stark and exposed without mutual interplay. Right at such a time, how is it? May the spring wind put forth all its strength, blowing all at once into this.' He further gave a verse: 'The bright jewel is in the palm, / Those with merit are rewarded. / The elder has newly entered the monastery, / Utterly devoid of tricks or craft. / Not establishing Zhaozhou's gate, / Each attends to their own feeding trough.'
