3.24
[The Master] cited Qianfeng instructing the assembly: "The Dharma body has three kinds of illnesses and two kinds of light. One must penetrate each and every one of them; furthermore, there is illuminating and functioning in accordance with the moment, and there is the one upward opening." Yunmen came forward and said, "Why does the person inside the hermitage not know the affairs outside the hermitage?" Feng burst out laughing heartily. Men said, "This is still where this student has doubt." Feng said, "What is your state of mind?" Men said, "I also need the Master to examine it." Feng said, "One must be so secure and hidden before one can sit securely on the ground." Men said, "Yes, yes." The Master said, "Sitting down, the disease is in the vitals; functioning, the light does not penetrate freely. Even if you crisscross in all directions and turn a single pivot completely, you still do not know of the one upward opening. Can you sit securely on the ground? / In the end, the moon of a frosty night / Falls naturally into the front stream."
