先生曰：「无知无不知，本体原是如此。譬如日未尝有心照物，而自无物不照。无照无不照，原是日的本体。良知本无知，今却要有知，本无不知，今却疑有不知，只是信不及耳。」
先生说：「无知而无不知，本体原是如此。譬如太阳不曾有心照物，却自然无一物不照。无照而无 不照，原是太阳的本体。良知本无知，如今却要有知；本无不知，如今却疑有不知——只是信不及罢了。」
The Master said: 'Knowing nothing yet nothing unknown — the substance is thus from the first. The sun never intends to shine, yet nothing is unlit: neither-intending-shine-yet-all-shone is the sun's substance. Innate knowledge originally knows not; now you would have it know; originally nothing unknown, now you doubt it — only trust falls short.'
