大慧普覺禪師語錄 11.21

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [11.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.11.21)

「若能轉物，即同如來，咄哉瞿曇，誑諕癡獃。物無自性，我亦非有，轉者為誰？徒勞心手。知無自性，復是何物？瞥起情塵，捫空揣骨，此菴無作，住者何人？具頂門眼，試辨疎親。」

> "If one can transform things, / One is identical with the Tathāgata. / Bah, Gautama! / Cheating and terrifying the foolish and naive! / Things have no self-nature, / And I too do not exist. / Who is the one that transforms? / Vainly exhausting mind and hands. / Knowing there is no self-nature, / What thing is it again? / A sudden stir of emotional dust, / Grasping at empty space and feeling for bones. / This hermitage is unconditioned; / Who is the person dwelling within? / Endowed with the eye on the top of the head, / Try discerning who is distant and who is close."
