人心多從動處失眞 若一念不生̖澄然靜坐 雲興而悠然共逝 雨滴而冷然俱淸 鳥啼而欣然有會 花落而瀟然自得 何地非眞境? 何物非眞機? (後 118)
Human mind usually loses its nature when it fluctuates. If letting mind stay right here and now, any thoughts do not arise and settle down in a clear and quiet place finally. When the clouds rise, mind goes together freely. When raindrops fall, mind is cool and refreshing together. When the birds sing, mind is happy to be together. When flowers fall, mind is clear and spontaneously aware.
Which places are not the true boundaries? Which things are not the true works? (Book2 118)
Absolutely non-fluctuated mind, tranquility is not the absence of thoughts. It is never being caught up in continuous thoughts that arise and disappear. If awareness can always stay in the midst of arising and disappearing, then everything you faces is true and divine.
