Gosho 開目抄 下 Opening of the Eyes part 2

(たと)い山林にまじわつて一念三千の観をこらすとも、(くう)(げん)にして三密の油をこぼさずとも、時機をしらず(しょう)(しゃく)の二門を(わきま)へずば・いかでか(しょう)()を離るべき。

Even if they retire to the mountain forests and engage intensely in the meditation on the three thousand realms in a single moment of life, or retire to a quiet spot and concentrate on the three mysteries [of body, mouth, and mind], if they do not understand the time or the people’s capacity and perceive which of the two methods, shōju or shakubuku, is appropriate, then they can never free themselves from the sufferings of birth and death.

In a deep forest, [a scholar of the Tiantai school] may meditate on and observe ichinen sanzen (three thousand realms in a single life-moment). In a desolate field, [a scholar of the Shingon sect] may perform the practices of the three secrets----intensely concentrating as if he were carrying a pot full of oil so as not to spill a drop. But how can they liberate themselves from the sufferings of life and death without knowing the time and capacity and without understanding the difference between the two methods of shōju and shakubuku
