Turning to Void or Phenomenon?

The intention of the phrase is difficult to distinguish;

It’s beauty is especially supplicating.

Carrying a knife, looking all around at emptiness—

Stop, and forfeit the whole cow.

.

Cast down your eyes, and the dust of the senses are escaped;

Return home, and the scenery is obscured.

The sum of all causes and conditions are not reached,

And the Buddha can not be repaid.

-Zhenxie Qingliao

意句難分別。風騷格外求。提刀空四顧。駐步失全牛。落眼情塵脫。歸根景象幽。萬緣俱不到。佛祖莫能酬。
