汾陽無德禪師語錄 1.4

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.1.4)

一華一葉，直指單傳之妙旨，自林際傳入汾陽手中，如持一尺之鏡，容納萬象森羅，量內量外，何曾見有虛空之廣，雲天之高，日月之明，毛芥堆突之細之大者也。怒雷分開泰華，摩竭大魚吸乾四大海水，當門師子咬斷一切衲僧命根，十智同真塞斷一切衲僧咽喉唇吻，此猶是將無作有遊戲三昧邊事，不落文字語言已前敲唱雙行底句，若非直下兒孫向印板上打出定道局在一隅，而大機大用超然如恒河沙數，木石首座之功豈浪施也哉。

> A single flower and a single leaf, the marvelous purport directly pointed and singly transmitted, from Linji was handed down into the hands of Fenyang. It is like holding a one-foot mirror that accommodates the array of myriad phenomena: measuring inside and measuring outside, when has it ever seen the vastness of empty space, the height of the clouds and sky, the brightness of the sun and moon, or the fineness and greatness of hair-tips and protruding mounds? Angry thunder rends Mount Hua apart; a great makara fish drinks dry the waters of the four great oceans; the lion stationed at the gate bites off the life-root of all patch-robed monks; the ten kinds of wisdom sharing one reality block up the throats and lips of all patch-robed monks. This is still an affair on the verge of the samādhi of playful sport, taking non-existence as existence; it is a phrase of tapping and singing in tandem before falling into written words and spoken language. Were it not for direct descendants breaking out from the printing-block to determine that the Dao is not confined to one corner, with great capacity and great function transcendentally as numerous as the sands of the Ganges, how could the effort of Head Monk Mushi have been exerted in vain?
