不執非死　林鈺堂 簡繁轉換 - 繁體

一切不執非死寂，意盡而後整體活；
心開無復樂窠臼，隨緣應對安平常。

跋

昨日作〈內外無著〉。因恐讀者誤為死寂，作此篇以補充說明之。大死之後復活，仍舊回歸平常，隨緣應機接引而已。

No Grasping but not Dead　 Yutang Lin

Attachment to none is not the same as dead still;
Exhaust thinking and then the whole will become alive.
Once mind opened, no longer enjoy lingering on old tracks;
Respond as occasions arise and content to be normal.

Comment:

Yesterday I composed "Neither Inner nor Outer Attachment." To avoid its being misunderstood as dead still, this one is composed to add explanation. Revival after a "great death," meaning the eradication of self, is simply to return to a normal way of life that responds to people as occasions arise.
