虛堂和尚語錄 7.95

7.95

明明不可銘，斷續復誰聽，海上有癡絕，山中無白丁。
天風生寂籟，霜月下寒汀，子去忘幽討，重嵓猶未扃。

Luminous and clear, it cannot be inscribed; / Interrupted and continuing, who will listen again? / On the sea is an utterly foolish one; / In the mountains there are no commoners. / The wind from the heavens generates silent pipes; / The frosted moon descends upon the cold sandbar. / When you go, forget secluded exploration; / The layered crags are not yet bolted shut.
