萬松老人評唱天童覺和尚頌古從容庵錄 1.144

1.144

Lineage and exposition of all sorts are completely forced effort; (Today one does not get an opening.) / Passing from ear to mouth, it immediately becomes fragmented. (Monks, do not blame him.) / Planting fields to barter for rice is an ordinary household affair; (There cannot be anything else.) / Unless one has trained to the full, one does not understand. (What do you want to understand for?) / Fully trained, one clearly knows there is nothing to seek; (One must consult Tiantong once more.) / Zifang in the end did not value being enfeoffed as a marquis. (This too is a spiritual turtle dragging its tail.) / Forgetting contrivance, he returned home to accompany fish and birds; (Following the flow, he attains the marvelous.) / Washing his feet in the Canglang, mist and trees in autumn. (Inexhaustible enjoyment.)
