虛堂和尚語錄 7.85

7.85

鍊實而食，擇木而棲，靈靈自晦，物物難齊，秋歛巢虛睡穩，
夢破月印清溪。

Eating only after refining the fruit, roosting only after selecting the tree; / Luminous, yet keeping oneself obscure; myriad things are hard to make equal. / Autumn gathers in: the nest is empty, sleep is sound; / The dream broken, the moon prints upon the clear stream.
