Master Baofeng Ying said to an assembly, A sage of the past said, “The moon over the river shines on the pines, the wind blows all night. On a clear night, what to do? The Buddha-nature, the pearls of the precepts, the seal of the Buddha-mind; fog and dew, clouds and mist, are clothing on the body.”
Chan worthies, though the sage of old spoke in this way, it can be said to be lacking in salt and lacking in vinegar. As for me, I’d say otherwise. The moon over the river shines on the pines, the wind blows all night. On a clear night, what to do? The note of the shepherd boy’s flute up on the range startles the crows, and they fly around the trees.
.
ewk note: Well, if you are looking for a crap ton of salt and vinegar, the Real Shobogenzo is a one stop shop. It goes on and on and on, people come forward, shoot their mouths off, and depart, leaving no traces. At this rate you won't find a shepherd to hang over a cliff, will you?
What is the real body, btw?
