It is not your realm). > One who arrives must be a hand at handling snakes (A spirit recognizes a spirit, a thief recognizes a thief. What are you doing flocking in crowds? One must be of the same gang). > Master Leng and Master Bei could do nothing about it (Acknowledging the indictment in full. Let him off one move). > How many have lost their bodies and forfeited their lives? (A crime is not punished twice. Dragging in innocent people). > Shaoyang knew (Still slightly better. This old fellow only possesses one eye. The old fellow cannot avoid playing tricks), > And parted the grass once again (What is the use of a fellow who falls into the grass? Sure enough, where is it? Then struck). > North, south, east, west—nowhere to search (Is there? Is there? Ācārya, your eyes are blind)! > Suddenly it shot out from the head of the staff (Look high and raise your eyes! Then struck), > Thrown before Xuefeng, its mouth gaping wide (Suffering the results of his own deeds. Swallowing thousands and myriads—what help is it? People under heaven cannot grope it out)! > The mouth gaping wide is like a flash of lightning (A double gong'an. Sure enough. Fortunately there is the final word), > Raise your eyebrows, and still it is not seen (You have missed it. In the five lakes and four seas, such a person is hard to find. Where is it now?). > Now it is hidden before Milk Peak (Where did it go? The great and small Xuedous also make such moves. Today this mountain monk also suffered a bite). > Let those who come each observe the expedient means (Blind! Do not look under your heels. Look under the elder's heels! Hit by an arrow)! > The Master shouted loudly: “Watch your step!” (Drawing the bow after the thief has fled. A second head, a third head. A repeated word is not worth eating). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003.3.8) - [Next: 3.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003.3.10) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003~en-mt.3.9) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003.3.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003.3.9) · Pramāṇa
