宏智禪師廣錄 9.300

9.300

靜之不昏。湛而若存。動之不渾。用而亡痕。入見離微之根。
出游幻化之門。赤水之求故罔象而珠得。
庖丁之伎乃亡牛而刃奔。百川碧漲。
三月紅繁。海不失於潮信。華自得於春恩。

Still, yet not dim;
Clear, and as if remaining.
Active, yet not turbid;
Functioning, yet leaving no trace.
Entering, one sees the root of departure and subtlety;
Emerging, one roams the gate of illusory transformation.
Sought in the Red Water, the pearl was obtained only through Wangxiang;
The skill of Cook Ding: heedless of the ox, his blade sped on.
The hundred streams swell green;
In the third month, red blossoms flourish.
The sea does not fail its tidal pledge;
The flowers naturally obtain the spring's grace.
