1.14
Snatching away the environment but not the person: / where is the truth in pursuing words? / Inquiring into Chan, Chan is delusion; / probing principle, principle is not intimate. / The sun shines, its cold light pale; / the mountains are distant, their emerald colour fresh. / Even if you profoundly comprehend it, / it is still dust in the eye. / (Dahui said: 'Do you want to understand "The sun shines, its cold light pale; the mountains are distant, their emerald colour fresh"? These two lines are the environment. "Even if you profoundly comprehend it, it is still dust in the eye"—here it is snatched away.')
