Even if you penetrate the barrier beyond phrases > and test your seniority before the dynamic opportunity, > though Mount Mi's staff has thorns > and beneath the shout thunders crash, > certainly I would not approve. > Why? Śākya originally did not appear in the world; > Bodhidharma decisively never came from the west. > How could what is naturally born accept arrangement? > Who would willingly comply with suppression? > Moreover, on that side of Bhīṣmagarjitasvararāja, > prior to the empty kalpa, it had already turned into concealment. > Having arrived here today, what should be done? > Bah! Letting one move slip by three thousand miles away, > biting pigs and biting dogs, wild grass and entangling vines. > Is there still anyone borrowing a path?" > Striking his staff, he said: "Pluck the willow catkins, pluck the willow catkins!" > He cited: "A monk asked Dongshan, 'At the beginning of autumn and the end of summer, where should one go?' > Dongshan said, 'Go to the place where there is not an inch of grass for ten thousand miles.' > Great assembly! Dongshan answering like this, > although his grandmotherly mind was earnest, > could not avoid sinking into level ground. > Tonight, if someone suddenly asks Jing the Elder, > I will simply say to him: > 'Following along, trample to silence the sound of flowing water; > gazing freely, sketch out the tracks of flying birds.'" > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.40](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.2.40) - [Next: 2.42](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.2.42) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a~en-mt.2.41) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.2.41](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.2.41) · Pramāṇa
