4.53

上堂云。巢知風穴知雨。不用安排。自成規矩。歷歷靡緣。間間何偶樂哉。林鳥淵魚。一笑相忘爾汝。且道。如何體悉恁麼相應去。還會麼。會得甚奇特。不會也相許。

Ascending the hall, [the Master] said: "Birds in the nest know the wind; creatures in the burrow know the rain. Without needing contrivance, rules form naturally. Distinct without conditions, spacious without counterpart. How joyful! Forest birds and deep-pool fish, with a single smile they forget 'you' and 'I'. But tell me, how does one fully understand and accord like this? Do you understand? Understanding is extraordinary indeed; not understanding is also permitted."
