### [29.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.29.7)

大道不由行得。說行權為凡愚。得理返觀於行。始知枉用工夫。未悟圓通大理。要須言行相扶。不得執他知解。迴光返本全無。有誰解會此說。教君向己推求。自見昔時罪過。除却五欲瘡疣。解脫逍遙自在。隨方賤賣風流。誰是發心買者。亦得似我無憂。

> The Great Way is not attained through practice; / speaking of practice is a provisional device for ordinary fools. / Attaining the principle and looking back upon practice, / only then does one know that effort was spent in vain. / Before awakening to the great principle of perfect penetration, / words and actions must support each other. / You must not cling to others' intellectual understanding; / turning the light back to the source, there is none at all. / Who understands this explanation? / I tell you to examine yourself: / see for yourself your past transgressions, / and remove the sores and warts of the five desires. / Liberated, easy, and free, / sell your elegant style cheaply wherever you go. / Who is there who resolves to buy it? / They too may become free from worry like me.
