密菴和尚語錄 1.39

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1999.1.39)

上堂：「在眼曰見，在耳曰聞，在手執捉，在足運奔，豁開則東西南北，把住則毫髮不存。且道豁開好？把住好？」驀拈拄杖卓一卓云：「一氣不言含有象，萬靈何處謝無私？」

> Ascending the hall: "In the eye it is called seeing; in the ear it is called hearing; in the hands it grasps and holds; in the feet it runs and rushes. Opening wide, there are east, west, south, and north; holding fast, not a hair's breadth remains. Tell me, is opening wide good, or is holding fast good?" Suddenly picking up his staff, he struck it once and said: "One breath without speaking contains all images; where do the myriad spirits give thanks for selflessness?"
