人天眼目 2.203

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [2.203](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2006.2.203)

要平不平。大巧若拙。或指或掌。倚天照雪。大冶兮磨礲不下。  
良工兮拂拭未歇。別別珊瑚枝枝撐著月。

> Demanding levelness where there is none; great skill appears clumsy.  
> Point with a finger or show the palm; leaning against the sky, it reflects snow.  
> The great furnace cannot grind it down;  
> The master smith never ceases wiping it clean.  
> Distinct, distinct!  
> Branch after branch of coral propping up the moon.
