大慧普覺禪師語錄 19.43

19.43

學世間事，用心不到則學不成，學出世間法，無爾用心處，纔擬用心推求，則千里萬里沒交涉矣。雖然如是，無用心處，無摸𢱢處，無著力處，正好著力。莫見恁麼道，又節外生枝，云既無用心無摸𢱢無著力，却如何趣向？若作此見，轉沒交涉矣。

In studying worldly matters, if you do not apply your mind thoroughly, the study will not succeed. In studying the supramundane Dharma, there is nowhere for you to apply your mind. The moment you intend to apply your mind to deduce and search, you are separated by thousands and tens of thousands of miles, having no connection at all. Even though it is like this, where there is no place to apply the mind, no place to grope, and no place to exert effort, that is precisely the place to exert effort. Do not, seeing it stated thus, branch out further and say: 'Since there is no place to apply the mind, no place to grope, and no place to exert effort, how then should I proceed?' If you adopt this view, you are even further disconnected.
