佛果圜悟禪師碧巖錄 5.9

5.9

"Striking with a snowball, striking with a snowball—" (How can one help falling into the second dynamic? No need to bring it up. Endless above the head, endless under the feet.) / "Old Pang's mechanism cannot be grasped." (Often people do not know. One only fears it is not so.) / "In heaven and among humans, he does not know himself;" (What kind of news is this? Does Xuedou know?) / "In eyes and in ears, completely detached and free." (Arrowheads meeting point-to-point. The eyes see as if blind, the mouth speaks as if mute.) / "Completely detached and free!" (What about it? In what place do you see Old Pang and Xuedou?) / "The blue-eyed barbarian monk can hardly distinguish it." (If Bodhidharma came out, what would he say to you? Striking, he says, "Reverend, what do you say?" Buried in a single pit.)
