義結孔懷，法歸本性。金順木馴成正果，心猿木母合丹元。共登極樂世界，同來不二法門。
經乃修行之總徑，佛配自己之元神。兄和弟會成三契，妖與魔色應五行。
剪除六門趣，即赴大雷音。

Bound in duty, they cherish one another as brothers; the Dharma returns to their true nature. Metal obeys and Wood submits, bringing the true fruit to completion; the Mind-Ape and the Wood Mother unite the elixir’s primal essence. Together they ascend to the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss; together they enter the gate of nonduality.
The scriptures are the main road of cultivation;the Buddha accords with one’s own primal spirit.Elder brother reconciled with younger, the three form one covenant;demons and fiends in their forms answer to the Five Elements.
Cut away the lure of the six gates, and go straight to the Great Thunderclap Monastery.
卻說那獃子被一窩猴子捉住了，扛擡扯拉，把一件直裰子揪破。口裡勞勞叨叨的，自家念誦道：「罷了，罷了，這一去有個打殺的情了。」不一時，到洞口。那大聖坐在石崖之上，罵道：「你這囊糠的夯貨！你去便罷了，怎麼罵我？」八戒跪在地下道：「哥啊，我不曾罵你；若罵你，就嚼了舌頭根。我只說哥哥不去，我自去報師父便了。怎敢罵你？」行者道：「你怎麼瞞得過我？我這左耳往上一扯，曉得三十三天人說話；我這右耳往下一扯，曉得十代閻王與判官算帳。你今走路把我罵，我豈不聽見？」八戒道：「哥啊，我曉得你賊頭鼠腦的，一定又變作個甚麼東西兒，跟著我聽的。」行者叫：「小的們，選大棍來，先打二十個見面孤拐，再打二十個背花，然後等我使鐵棒與他送行。」八戒慌得磕頭道：「哥哥，千萬看師父面上，饒了我罷。」行者道：「我想那師父好仁義兒哩。」八戒又道：「哥哥，不看師父啊，請看海上菩薩之面，饒了我罷。」

Now, the Idiot had been caught by a whole swarm of monkeys. They carried him, tugged him and hauled him along, tearing his monk’s robe to pieces. Grumbling and muttering, he said to himself, “That’s it, that’s it. This time I’m going to be beaten to death.” Before long they reached the cave entrance. The Great Sage sat on the rocky ledge and cursed him. “You chaff-stuffed lump of a fool! Go if you want to go. Why curse me?” Bajie knelt on the ground. “Brother, I never cursed you. If I did, may I bite my tongue off at the root! I only said that if Brother wouldn’t come, I’d go back and tell Master myself. How would I dare curse you?” Pilgrim said, “How could you hide it from me? When I pull my left ear upward, I hear what people are saying in the Thirty-three Heavens. When I pull my right ear downward, I hear the Ten Kings of the Underworld and their judges settling accounts. You cursed me on the road just now. How could I not hear?” Bajie said, “Brother, I know what a sneaky, sly little fellow you are. You must have changed into something again and followed me to listen.” Pilgrim called, “Little ones, choose some stout clubs! First give him twenty welcoming blows on the ankles, then twenty to flower his back. After that, wait for me to send him on his way with my iron cudgel.” In a panic Bajie kowtowed. “Brother, for Master’s sake, please, please spare me!” Pilgrim said, “A fine, kind, dutiful Master he’s been to me!” Bajie pleaded again. “Brother, if not for Master’s sake, then for the sake of the Bodhisattva of the Sea, spare me!”
行者見說起菩薩，卻有三分兒轉意道：「兄弟，既這等說，我且不打你。你卻老實說，不要瞞我。那唐僧在那裡有難，你卻來此哄我？」八戒道：「哥哥，沒甚難處，實是想你。」行者罵道：「這個好打的劣貨，你怎麼還要者囂我？老孫身回水簾洞，心逐取經僧。那師父步步有難，處處該災，你趁早兒告訴我，免打。」八戒聞得此言，叩頭上告道：「哥啊，分明要瞞著你，請你去的，不期你這等樣靈。饒我打，放我起來說罷。」行者道：「也罷，起來說。」眾猴撒開手。那獃子跳得起來，兩邊亂張。行者道：「你張甚麼？」八戒道：「看看那條路兒空闊，好跑。」行者道：「你跑到那裡？我就讓你先走三日，老孫自有本事趕轉你來。快早說來，這一惱發我的性子，斷不饒你。」

At the mention of the Bodhisattva, Pilgrim relented a little. “Brother, since you put it that way, I won’t beat you for now. But tell me honestly, and hide nothing. Where has that Tang Monk got into trouble, that you’ve come here to trick me?” Bajie said, “Brother, there’s no trouble. He really does miss you.” Pilgrim cursed him. “You wretch who deserves a beating! Still trying to fool me? Old Sun’s body is back in the Water-Curtain Cave, but his heart follows the scripture-seeking monk. That Master meets trouble at every step and disaster everywhere. Tell me quickly and save yourself a beating.” At these words Bajie knocked his head on the ground and confessed. “Brother, I did mean to keep it from you and trick you into coming. I never expected you to be so sharp. Spare me the beating and let me get up to tell you.” Pilgrim said, “Very well. Get up and speak.” The monkeys let go. The Idiot sprang to his feet and looked wildly to either side. “What are you looking at?” Pilgrim asked. Bajie said, “Checking which road is clear, so I can run.” Pilgrim said, “Where could you run? I could give you three days’ head start, and Old Sun would still know how to catch you and bring you back. Speak, and be quick about it. If you make me lose my temper, I certainly won’t spare you.”
