頌曰.
返本還源已費功. 爭如直下若盲聾.
庵中不見庵前物. 水自茫茫花自紅.
入廛垂手序十.
柴門獨掩. 千聖不知. 埋自己之風光. 負前賢之途轍. 提瓢入市. 策杖還家. 酒肆魚行. 化令成佛.
頌曰.
露胸跣足入廛來. 抹土塗灰笑滿顋.
不用神仙眞祕訣. 直教枯木放花開.
FOOTNOTES
[f1] As it was not expedient to set up Chinese type in England, special Chinese notes at the end of the book have been prepared in Japan, in which are found all the Chinese characters considered by the author useful for scholars’ reference. The superior figures throughout the present work point to the Chinese notes in the Appendix.
[f2] One of the popular lectures prepared by the author for students of Buddhism, 1911. It was first published in The Eastern Buddhist, under the title, “Zen Buddhism as Purifier and Liberator of Life.” Since it treats of Zen in its general aspect, I have decided to make it serve as Introduction to this book.
