佛果圜悟禪師碧巖錄 10.19

10.19

The whole elephant and the whole ox do not differ from a cataract in the eye;
(A half-blind fellow; half open, half shut. Why lean on the fence and grope along the wall? One cut into two pieces!)
Masters from of old have collectively delineated them.
(The twenty-eight [patriarchs] of the Western Heaven and the six [patriarchs] of the Tang land; the old venerable masters under heaven are like hemp and millet, yet they are still too few.)
If you want to see the yellow-headed old man now,
(Bah! This old barbarian, a blind fellow, is right under your feet!)
Through every world and every particle of dust, you are halfway on the journey.
(You missed him right under your feet! What more do you want this mountain monk to say? Did you ever even dream of him in the Year of the Donkey?)
