1.169

Ascending the hall, [the Master] said: "Splendid, venerable Chan monks! Covering and containing together with heaven and earth; moistening together with the rain and dew; generating and growing together with the grasses and trees; departing and staying together with the waters and clouds; sharing misfortune and fortune together with the ghosts and spirits; sharing yin and yang together with the seasons. Therefore it is said: 'The myriad things naturally possess function; one should speak of the ultimate point of utility. Phenomena exist as the box and lid fitting together; principle corresponds like arrow-points meeting.' Right at such a time, how can one achieve the box-and-lid and meeting arrow-points? Do you understand? Throughout the entire realm it has never been hidden; throughout the entire body there is no shadow or image."
