(Casually carved out and solid) > In its rest: a submerged dragon in the deep; (Even the Buddha-eye cannot catch sight of it) > In its ease: a soaring bird freed from its tether. (Even chopping off one's head, one cannot reach it) > Out of nowhere, the ancestral master came from the West, (The upper beam is not straight) > And within it, gain and loss are split half and half. (The lower pillars are uneven) > Tumbleweed follows the wind and whirls through the void; (Karmic consciousness is vast, with no root to rely on) > A boat cuts across the current and arrives at the shore. (Hoisting the sail with the current, it is hard to encounter such ease) > Among them, sharp patchrobed monks—(A drunkard cursing in the street; who dares take it on?) > Behold Qingliang's method!
