A hundred years ought to be thrown away by itself; How can one rely upon a single meal? The warm wind sets mountain magpies to fight; As the mist dissolves, the sharp edges of stones are revealed. Sharing sweetness with the clouds and waters, All day long, I let myself be carefree and untrammeled. - [Previous: 7.135](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000~en-mt.7.135) - [Next: 7.137](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000~en-mt.7.137) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000~en-mt.7) ## Linked texts (1) - [虛堂和尚語錄](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.7.136) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000~en-mt.7.136](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000~en-mt.7.136) · Pramāṇa
