宏智禪師廣錄 6.45

6.45

Wither and cool the body and mind; wash and polish the ground. Dust and confusion completely cleansed, a single realm is empty and bright. Water-moon and clear sky's radiance; cloud-mountains and autumn colors. Green and verdant, dark and deep, pure and tranquil, spiritual and vivid. Naturally illuminating the original root, not following the branches and leaves. At such a time and in such a place, transcending emotional conditioning, not limited by the number of kalpas, a single thought for ten thousand years, ultimately without change. From here emerging to respond: drifting clouds in an empty valley, movement and stillness at ease. Harmoniously entering the various dusts, constantly in samādhi. Therefore it is said: 'The nāga is constantly in concentration; there is no time when it is not in concentration.'
