### [1.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.1.21)

小參，僧問：「氷綻魚散時如何？」師云：「水清魚不現，長波自往來。」「龍王當居何位？」師云：「在處存金殿，乾坤獨我尊。」「恁麼則更無過者。」師云：「按劍誰得妙，當人不自傷。」

> At an informal gathering, a monk asked: "How is it when the ice breaks and the fish scatter?" The Master said: "The water is clear, yet the fish do not appear; the long waves naturally come and go." The monk asked: "In what position should the Dragon King dwell?" The Master said: "In every place the golden palace remains; in heaven and earth, I alone am revered." The monk said: "If so, then none can surpass him." The Master said: "Gripping the sword, who attains its wonder? The person involved does not wound himself."
