Dayang never forgot the assembly at Dongsi; Xuansha, succeeding \[to the lineage\], remained at Xuefeng. Where the loom shuttle passes, it is difficult to open a road; when needle and mustard seed meet, there is a marvelous gate. The nostrils emit light, exhaling with relief; in that year, a single chop removed every trace of mud. Just as teacher and disciple mutually tally and the bloodline flows through, at such a time and in such a place, how do you experience and understand the matter transmitted from mind to hand? After a long pause, he said: In discarding \[all traces\], one must see the rank beyond merit; for marvelous roundness, one must reach the home before form. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.74](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.4.74) - [Next: 4.76](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.4.76) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001~en-mt.4.75) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.4.75](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.4.75) · Pramāṇa
