也大奇
唐 洞山良价 ( 807~869 )

也大奇!也大奇!
無情說法不思議;
若將耳聽終難會,
眼處聞聲方得知。

Wondrous
Dongshan Liangjie (807 - 869, Tang Dynasty)
English translation: Miao Guang and Sasha Lyapina

O, wondrous! Wondrous!
The insentient expound the Dharma, inconceivable,
If you use your ears to listen,
      eventually it is difficult to comprehend;
Place your eyes in the direction of the sound,
      for understanding to finally be attained.

── from Dongshan Liangjie Chanshi Yulu (Record of Liangjie of Dongshan)
