雲門匡真禪師廣錄 1.15

1.15

上堂良久云：「還有人道得麼？道得底出來。」眾無語，師拈拄杖云：「適來是箇小屎坑，如今是箇大屎坑。」下座。問：「萬法歸一，一即不問，如何是萬法？」師云：「爾來這裏說葛藤瞞我。」問：「聖僧為什麼被大蟲咬？」師云：「與天下人作牓樣。」問：「十二時中如何用心，即得不負於上來？」師云：「省力。」進云：「省力事如何？」師云：「省取前話。」問：「萬機不到處如何知有？」師云：「該得麼？」進云：「日用事如何？」師云：「一箭到新羅，大漢國裏說葛藤。」問：「學人擬伸一問，還許也無？」師云：「佛不奪眾生所願。」問：「如何舉唱即得不負來機？」師云：「痛領一問。」問：「千聖功圓，冥然時如何擊琢？」師云：「句裏明人。」問：「三界中何物勝於佛？」師云：「通爾一問。」問：「摘葉尋枝即不問，如何是直截根源？」師云：「速禮三拜。」問：「已事未明，如何指示？」師云：「不避來機，還當得麼？」問：「盡其機來，師還接也無？」師云：「一問不錯。」學云：「一問且置，師還接不？」師云：「細看前話。」問：「毘盧向上即不問，虛空請師留些子？」師云：「把却汝咽喉，爾作麼生道？」問：「如何是學人自己？」師云：「一扠一劄。」進云：「莫便是不？」師云：「蘇嚕蘇嚕。」

Ascending the hall, after a long silence [the Master] said: "Is there anyone who can speak? Let the one who can speak come forth."
The assembly was silent.
The Master raised his staff and said: "Just now it was a small cesspool; now it is a big cesspool." Then he stepped down from the seat.
[A monk] asked: "The ten thousand dharmas return to the one; I do not ask about the one, but what are the ten thousand dharmas?"
The Master said: "You have come here to speak entwining vines and deceive me."
[A monk] asked: "Why was the holy monk bitten by a tiger?"
The Master said: "To serve as a model for the people of the world."
[A monk] asked: "Throughout the twelve periods of the day, how should one apply the mind so as not to fail what has been handed down from above?"
The Master said: "Save effort."
[The monk] advanced and asked: "What is the matter of saving effort?"
The Master said: "Save on the preceding words."
[A monk] asked: "Where the myriad mechanisms do not reach, how does one know it is there?"
The Master said: "Can it be subsumed?"
[The monk] advanced and asked: "What about daily affairs?"
The Master said: "One arrow reaches Silla; in the Great Han empire one speaks entwining vines."
[A monk] asked: "The student intends to pose a question; will you allow it or not?"
The Master said: "The Buddha does not deprive sentient beings of their wishes."
[A monk] asked: "How should one proclaim it so as not to fail the incoming capacity?"
The Master said: "Deeply acknowledge one question."
[A monk] asked: "When the merits of the thousand sages are perfected, how should one strike and polish in the obscurity?"
The Master said: "A person of clarity within the phrase."
[A monk] asked: "In the three realms, what thing is superior to the Buddha?"
The Master said: "I allow you one question."
[A monk] asked: "I do not ask about plucking leaves and seeking branches; what is cutting straight to the root source?"
The Master said: "Quickly make three bows."
[A monk] asked: "When one's own affair is not yet clear, how do you instruct?"
The Master said: "Not evading the incoming capacity—can you bear it?"
[A monk] asked: "When one comes with all one's capacity, Master, do you receive him or not?"
The Master said: "A single question is not mistaken."
The student said: "Set aside the question for a moment; Master, do you receive him or not?"
The Master said: "Look closely at the preceding words."
[A monk] asked: "I do not ask about beyond Vairocana; Master, please leave a little bit of empty space."
The Master said: "Grabbing you by the throat, what will you say?"
[A monk] asked: "What is the student's self?"
The Master said: "A fork and a jab."
[The monk] advanced and asked: "Is that not it?"
The Master said: "Suru, suru."
