禅宗公案 Zen Koan – 通身是眼 Eyes Throughout The Body


Source: 通身是眼



有一次,道吾禅师问云岩:“观世音菩萨有千手千眼,请问你,哪里一个眼睛是正眼呢?”
Once, ZM Dao-wu asked Yun-yan: Which is the True eye of the Thousand hands thousand eyes Avalokitesvara Boddhisattva?

云岩:“如同你晚上睡觉,枕头掉到地下去时,你没睁开眼睛,手往地下一抓就抓起来了,重新睡觉,请问你,你是用什么眼去抓的?”
Yun-yan: just like when you are asleep, your pillow dropped to the floor, without opening your eyes, your hand grab the pillow, then you continue to sleep again, so which eye did you use to grab the pillow?

道吾禅师听了之后,说:“喔!师兄,我懂了!”
ZM Dao-wu said after hearing these: O! Dhrama brother, I understand already!

“你懂什么?”
What did you understand?

“遍身是眼。”
Eyes all over the body.

云岩禅师一笑,说:“你只懂了八成!”
ZM YY laughed, said: You only understand 80 percent!

道吾疑惑的问:“那应该怎么说呢?”
Dao-wu doubtfully asked: Then how should I say it?

“通身是眼!”
Eyes throughout the body!

“遍身是眼”,这是从分别意识去认知的;
Eyes all over the body - from different meaning to understand it;

“通身是眼”  这是从心性上无分别智能上显现的。
Eyes throughout  the body - this is revelation from Heart nature's angle that there is no difference in wisdom of perception.

我们有一个通身是眼的真心,为什么不用它彻天彻地的观照一切呢?
Our have True Hearts of "Eyes throughout the body", why don't use to thoroughly observe everything?

Dear all,

During the recent Heruka event in Seattle, GM Lu again brought up these "Eyes throughout the body" concept, have you comprehend HIS explanation? :)


Cheers all.
