宏智禪師廣錄 8.21

8.21

Wonderfully complete, single and combined, severed from middle and extremes; / The five-and-five dynamic workings interchange with difficulty. / Strings and pipes tuned, their notes and rhythms harmonize; / Shuttles and threads weave out brocade patterns to behold. / Body and mind, each and every one can respond in division; / Hands and eyes by the thousands cannot be deceived. / Like entrusting salt and plums to the old hermit of the crags to use: / Blending the soup, no more is saltiness or sourness perceived.
