修禪道人，隨身卓庵，取名於佛果老子，因與名之若虛，乃會三為一也，而不出本分事及禪教。永嘉云：「體若虛空沒涯岸。」佛經云：「佛真法身猶若虛空。」混元云：「深藏若虛。」宣尼云：「實若虛。」云：「一滴滴水，一滴滴凍，只麼平常，表裏空洞，根塵絕偶，六門互用，快住此庵，十八不共，要戲罅隙，灼然無縫，應物非緣，誰為幻夢。」

> Cultivator of Chan Ruoxu pitched a hermitage as he went along and sought a name from old Foguo. Therefore I gave it the name 'Ruoxu' (As if Empty), thus gathering the three into one, yet not departing from the fundamental lot, Chan, or the teachings. Yongjia said, 'The substance is like empty space, without shores or banks.' A Buddhist sūtra says, 'The Buddha's true dharmakāya is just like empty space.' Hunyuan said, 'Profoundly stored as if empty.' Xuanni said, 'Full as if empty.' It is said: 'Drop by drop of water, drop by drop of ice; / just so ordinary, hollow inside and out. / Sense roots and sense objects severed from duality, / the six gates mutually functioning. / Joyfully abide in this hermitage / of the eighteen unshared dharmas. / If you seek a crack or chink, / it is brightly and clearly seamless. / Responding to things without conditioning, / who makes it a phantom dream?'
