曹山云。凡情聖見是金鎖玄路。直須回互。夫取正命食者。須具三種墮。一者披毛戴角。二者不斷聲色。三者不受食。稠布衲問。披毛戴角是甚麼墮。曰是䫫墮。問不斷聲色是什麼墮。曰是隨墮。問不受食是什麼墮。曰是尊貴墮。乃曰。夫冥合初心而知有。是䫫墮。知有而不礙六塵。是隨墮。維摩曰。外道六師是汝之師。彼師所墮汝亦隨墮。乃可取食。食者正命食也。食者亦是就六根門頭見聞知覺。只是不被他污染將為墮。且不是同也。

Caoshan said: "Worldly sentiments and sacred views are a mysterious road with golden locks; one must straightforwardly interpenetrate. Those who take the food of right livelihood must possess three kinds of falling: first, wearing fur and bearing horns; second, not severing sound and form; third, not receiving food." Choucouna asked, "What kind of falling is wearing fur and bearing horns?" He said, "It is falling into the [animal] species." He asked, "What kind of falling is not severing sound and form?" He said, "It is falling along with [phenomena]." He asked, "What kind of falling is not receiving food?" He said, "It is falling into the honored and noble." He then said: "Darkly tallying with the initial mind while knowing there is that which is above—this is falling into the species. Knowing there is that which is above without obstructing the six dusts—this is falling along with phenomena. Vimalakīrti said: 'The six non-Buddhist teachers are your teachers; where those teachers fall, you also fall along with them—only then may you take food.' The 'food' is the food of right livelihood. 'Food' also refers to seeing, hearing, knowing, and perceiving right at the gates of the six sense faculties; simply not being defiled by them is taken as falling, yet it is not the same as [ordinary falling]."
