5.40

不見一法存無見 大似浮雲遮日面
不知一法守空知 還如太虛生閃電
此之知見瞥然興 錯認何曾解方便
汝當一念自知非 自己靈光常顯見

"Not seeing a single dharma, yet keeping 'no-seeing,' / Is very much like floating clouds veiling the face of the sun.
Not knowing a single dharma, yet guarding 'empty knowing,' / Is just like lightning flashing across empty space.
This vision and knowledge, suddenly arising— / Misrecognizing it, when have you ever understood skillful means?
If in a single thought you yourself recognize the error, / Your own spiritual radiance will constantly appear."
