1.43

問：「鴻鐘纔擊，聲震大千，未審聞底事如何？」師云：「僧集六和儀範足，俗開五義壯英雄。」「恁麼則大眾總得聞也。」師云：「於中爾一箇耳瞶。」僧禮拜起來，師云：「記得麼？」「記不得。」師云：「大家聽取一頌，范金成器號鴻鐘，纔擊聲喧宇宙通，僧集六和儀範足，俗開五義壯英雄；須彌報信飲光首，乾竺摧邪提婆宗，永掛蓮宮為上瑞，人天普悟福無窮。」

A monk asked: "No sooner is the great bell struck than its sound shakes the great trichiliocosm; I wonder, what is the matter of hearing it?" The Master said: "The monks assemble in the six harmonies, their deportment complete; the laity develop the five virtues, invigorating heroes." "In that case, the entire assembly hears it." The Master said: "Among them, you alone are deaf." The monk bowed and stood up. The Master said: "Do you remember?" "I do not remember." The Master said: "Everyone listen to this verse: / Cast from metal into an instrument, named the great bell, / No sooner struck than its resonant sound penetrates the universe. / Monks assemble in the six harmonies, their deportment complete; / The laity develop the five virtues, invigorating heroes. / Sumeru reports the news with Kāśyapa at the head; / In Central India, Devadatta's school of heterodoxy is crushed. / Forever hanging in the lotus palace as a supreme auspicious sign, / Humans and devas everywhere awaken, with boundless blessings."
