虛堂和尚語錄 7.180

7.180

誠信之言是道根，出門句子要區分，溪山到眼知慚愧，
莫學叢林飽見聞。

Sincere and trustworthy words are the root of the Way;
The phrases for stepping out the gate must be clearly distinguished.
When streams and mountains meet your eyes, know shame;
Do not imitate the monasteries' gluttony for seeing and hearing.
