虛堂和尚語錄 10.110

10.110

敬而遠，親而疎，明鑑靈腑，善定銷銖，凌霄高而眾峯拱，海嶠聳而蟾影孤，子歸就父，吾不識渠。

Revering yet distant, intimate yet estranging, / It brightly reflects the spiritual core and skillfully fixes the weighing scale. / Lingxiao rises high while the myriad peaks pay homage; / The sea cliffs tower while the toad's shadow stands alone. / When the child returns to approach the father, I do not recognize him.
