筠州洞山悟本禪師語錄 1.18

1.18

師臨行又問雲巖：「和尚百年後，忽有人問：『還邈得師真否？』如何秖對？」巖曰：「但向伊道，只這是。」師良久。巖曰：「价闍黎！承當箇事，大須審細。」後因過水覩影，大悟前旨，因有偈曰：「切忌從他覓，迢迢與我疎，我今獨自往，處處得逢渠。渠今正是我，我今不是渠，應須與麼會，方始契如如。」

When about to depart, the Master further asked Yunyan: 'After the Upādhyāya's hundred years, if someone suddenly asks: "Can one still depict the master's true likeness?" how should I respond?' Yunyan said: 'Simply tell him: Just this is it.' The Master was silent for a long while. Yunyan said: 'Ācārya Jie! Taking charge of this matter requires great care and precision.' Later, when crossing the water and seeing his reflection, he was thoroughly awakened to the former meaning, whereupon he composed a gāthā: 'Avoid by all means seeking from another, / which is distant and estranged from me. / I now go alone, / and everywhere I meet him. / He now is truly me, / I now am not him. / One must understand in this way / to finally accord with suchness.'
