佛果圜悟禪師碧巖錄 7.32

7.32

"Not lodging this body in the Twin Trees,"
(Only because he could not hold back. How could an awl be concealed in a bag?)
"Instead he stirred up dust in the land of Liang."
(If one does not enter the grass, how can one see the reality? In a place devoid of elegance, there is also elegance.)
"If not for Old Master Zhi at that time,"
(To be a thief requires no capital; there is a scabby fellow tagging along.)
"He too would have been an unsettled man driven from the country."
(Just right to accept the charge and take the beating!)"} ],
