### [2.89](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2006.2.89)

夫觸目是道。佛事門中。絕跡無私。通貫實際。圓融事理。運用雙行。器量堪任。隨機赴感。門風露布。各在當人。建立宗乘。強生枝節。出門問路。指東劃西。歷劫頑嚚。如何扣發（古德著語云。針鋒頭上翻筋斗。紅爐焰裏碧波生。猿抱子歸青嶂裏。鳥啣花落碧巖前）。

> Whatever meets the eye is the Way; within the gate of Buddhist work, it leaves no trace and is free of partiality, running throughout the limit of reality. Harmoniously merging phenomena and principle, both are deployed in tandem. If one's capacity is up to the task, one responds according to the potential met. The manifestation of the lineage's style rests entirely with the person concerned. In establishing schools and vehicles, branches and knots are forcibly produced. Stepping outside the gate to ask for the way, they point east and draw west. How can the stubbornly dull across kalpas ever be stimulated and awakened? (An ancient master commented: "Turning a somersault on the point of a needle; azure waves arise within the flames of a red-hot furnace. A monkey holds its young and returns into the green peaks; a bird takes a flower in its beak and drops it before the azure cliff.")
