"What aroused the multitude of passes with accuracy from the past seven awake, awake to the alert, the patriarch of the patriarch, is none other than the concentration itself which is attested yourself. That means friends or follow the good, or follow the sutras.'s the apple of the Eye of the Sleepless and patriarchs.
Therefore:
Former awake Sokei (Daikan Eno) asked a monk, saying: "clothe you-you still practice and enlightenment certified?"
The monk said: "The practice and enlightenment are not certified it-there-was-not. Exactly, do not pollute."
If so, you must know, practice and enlightenment are certified without staining other than awake and patriarchs. There are wind and thunder rumbling in the concentration of self.
At this time-just-as-is where we follow a friend good, or we see half his face, or you see half of his body. Or you can see his entire face, or we see his entire body. It may be half way himself, he may be half way on the other. It demonstrates that there is another hair on the head of the gods: we learn that each side of the devils have horns. It is possible that the different species come and go after the other and it may be that those who are born of the same strain to go away, become different from each other. It is in such a place as one abandons his body to the Act no one knows how many thousands, tens of thousands times and that the Act is sought for the benefit of the body no one knows how many tens of millions and billions of eons. This is the full activity in which we follow the good friends, this is the uninterrupted breath with which we ourselves learned by following yourself.
Upon seeing the twinkle of the eye, face hatched there, going for the spinal and venerate the master, they cut his arm. In a word, since the before and after the seven awake past, friends of many who see themselves abound right and left of the sixth patriarch, not only the number one or two. Friends of many who see another concern neither the past nor the present.
