The Mirror of Zen

76장

Great teachers may also have many sicknesses.

Those whose ears and eyes are afflicted will express

their practice by focusing energy intensely in their eyes,

or by tilting their ears and nodding their head knowingly.

For those who have a sickness in their mouth and tongue, Zen is

about spouting nonsensical phrases or giving a sudden shout of

"HO!" even though they are not awakened to its meaning themselves.

Those whose Zen sickness is expressed in the limbs may step

forward, then backward, or wordlessly draw a line in the air.

Those who have a Zen sickness in their hearts or innards will

claim their truths, affecting an air of mysteriousness, or

by arrogantly setting themselves above "the ignorant masses"

and spouting all sorts of declarations about them.

In the end,

all such attitudes and gestures

just make more and more sickness.

76장

종사에게도 또한 병이 많다. 병이 귀와 눈에 있는 이는

눈을 부릅뜨고 귀를 기울이며 머리를 끄덕이는 것으로써

선을 삼고, 병이 입과 혀에 있는 이는 횡성수설 되지 않는

말과 함부로 '할' 하는 것으로써 선을 삼는다. 또 병이

손발에 있는 이는 나아갔다 물러났다 이쪽저쪽 가리키는

것으로써 선을 삼으며, 병이 속에 있는 이는 진리를

찾아내고 오묘한 것을 뚫어내며 인정에서 뛰어나오고

소견을 여의는 것으로써 선을 삼는다. 사실대로 말하자면,

어느 것이고 병 아닌 것이 없다.
