Meeting the Parrot Who Escaped from the Cage, He Realizes He Must Pretend to Be Dead

見鳥出籠　悟裝死人

Patriarch Bodhidharma walked on ahead; the Dharma Master pursued him from behind. In his pursuit, he passed the parrot who had gained his freedom through the help of Patriarch Bodhidharma. Suddenly he understood, “Oh! That’s what it’s all about! I have to play dead. I have to be a living dead person!”

追達摩祖師，祖師在前面走，他就在後面追，一追，追到這兒，看見達摩祖師幫助這只小鳥得到了自由。他就想：噢！原來就是這麼回事，要裝死，要裝一個活死人。
