道吾禪師問雲巖:「觀世音菩薩有千手千眼,請問你,哪一隻眼睛是正眼呢?」雲巖:「你晚上睡覺,枕頭掉到地下時,你沒睜眼,手往地下一把就抓起來了,請問你是用什麼眼去抓的?」道吾:「喔!我懂了!」雲 巖:「你懂什麼?」道吾:「遍身是眼。」雲巖禪師一笑,說:「你只懂了八成!」道吾疑惑地問:「那應該怎麼說呢?」雲巖:「通身是眼!」
「遍身是眼」是從分別意識上去認知,「通身是眼」則是從心性、無分別智慧上顯現的。我們有一個通身是眼的真心,為什麼不用它徹天徹地的觀照一切呢?

Chan Master Daowu posed this question to Chan Master Yunyan, “Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva has a thousand hands and a thousand eyes. May I ask you which eye is the true eye?” Yunyan responded, “You are sleeping, and your pillow falls to the floor. With your eyes still closed, and without giving the slightest thought, your hand reaches down and picks it up. I ask you, which eye did you use to pick it up?” “Ah! Now I understand,” said Daowu. “What do you understand?” “That all over the body is the eye.” Smiling, Yunyan countered, “You only understand eighty percent.” Daowu was baffled. “What then should I say?” “Say the whole body is the eye,” replied Yunyan.
“All over the body is the eye” signifies understanding through discriminating consciousness. “The whole body is the eye” denotes non-discriminating wisdom from the nature of the mind. In our true mind, the entire body is the eye. Let’s apply this concept to our deep reflection and comprehension of all things.
