Patriarch's Hall: Something to annoy everyone

Anderl's 祖堂集 Zutang ji, Patriarch's Hall Collection, https://terebess.hu/zen/Zutangji.html

You should realize the 'One-mark samädhi ²⁸⁶¹

and the 'One-practice samädhi ²⁸⁶¹

' One-mark samädhi' means that everywhere is the mark of non-abiding and in that mark one does not produce hate or love, one does not grasp nor reject, one does not think about gain or profit, one does not think about dispersing and destroying, naturally one is in peace, therefore this is called 'One-mark samädhi' . One-practice samädhi' means that all activities like walking, standing, sitting, and lying, are the straighforward mind, it is the place of practice (or: enlightenment), ²⁸⁶⁴ it is the Pure Land.

• 2860 See Fä-huå Jing Yåo-cäo yü pin

• 2861 On yi-xing sän-méi 'One practice-samädhi; samädhi of oneness' (Skr. ekavyüha; ekäkära samädhl)•, see Wén-shü shuö bö-ré Jing and QIXINLUN•, this samädhi played an important role in the teachings of the Fifth Patriarch H6ngrén.

• 2864 Compare VIMALAKIRTI, T. 14/475: 538b1: o ('You have to know that the true mind (zhén-xin is the Pure Land of the Bodhisattva. ') and VIMALAKIRTI, T. 14/475: 542c15: o ('The True mind is the bodhi-mandala since it is without falseness. ').

(Welcome link) (ewk^who?) note: If you can't find something annoying in this bit, read it again. Sheesh. Where do I start? I even left out some of the footnotes. If you don't have a doctrinal dispute, then you can wonder what texts the footnotes cover.
