禪林寶訓 1.66

1.66

黃龍曰。道如山愈升而愈高。如地愈行而愈遠。學者卑淺盡其力而止耳。惟有志於道者。乃能窮其高遠。其他孰與焉（記聞）。

Huanglong said: "The Way is like a mountain: the more you ascend, the higher it becomes; it is like the earth: the farther you travel, the more distant it becomes. Those whose learning is low and shallow merely exhaust their strength and stop. Only those who have set their will upon the Way can fathom its height and distance. Who among the others can compare with them?" (Jiwen)
