Trailing preachments and entangling vines—by all means avoid chatter! > Do you still know? > Before getting close, already separated by the great chiliocosm; > bringing forth the ultimate reality upward, all the more without connection. > Right here, is there anyone who breaks out of the nest and penetrates the subtle and infinitesimal? > Come forth and bear witness with the staff! > Do not hesitate to stir up the waters of West Lake > and sweep up the clouds of South Mountain. > The staff leaps up to the Trāyastriṃśa Heaven." > Striking his staff, he said: > "Poking Śakra's nostrils, > venting steam for the patch-robed monks under heaven, making the monastery rejoice! > Just at such a time, as for the so-called seasonal conditions of the staff's meeting— > just what about before they met?" > Striking his staff, he said: > "Tonight's minor convocation gives no answer to questions; > the staff's tip vexes the spring breeze." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.42](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.2.42) - [Next: 2.44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.2.44) - [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.2.43) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.2.43](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.2.43) · Pramāṇa
