Snatching away both person and environment: / from the beginning the true mandate has been enforced. / Setting aside Buddhas and ancestors, / how can one speak of feelings of holy and worldly? / Intending to run against the hair-severing sword / is just like encountering one who is blind. / Stepping forward seeking understanding, / one's vital spirit is especially severed. / (Dahui said: 'Once the true mandate is enforced, it retains neither Buddhas nor ancestors. Arriving here, advancing or retreating, one's life is entirely in the master's hands. Like the hair-severing sword, one must not run against its point.')
