Ascending the hall, [the Master] said, "Under a single mallet all buddhas are born; birth is non-birth. Within a minute dust mote the great dharmacakra is turned; turning has no turning. Direct it so that thought after thought seeing things, having no different marks, is precisely true; place after place hearing sūtras, not falling into the ears, is then wondrous. Even though it is like this, the fellow who has settled his affair within the portal of light and shadow will manage it. But just when host and guest are not yet distinguished, and images have not yet taken shape, how do you tread?" After a good while, he said, "Wind and clouds have not encroached upon the dawn; heaven and water share the same autumn."
