汾陽無德禪師語錄 2.90

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [2.90](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.2.90)

南泉兩堂爭猫兒，泉見遂提起云：「道得即不斬。」眾無對，泉便斬却。後舉問趙州，州脫草鞋，於頭上戴出，泉云：「子若在，却救得猫兒。」

> The two halls of Nanquan were disputing over a cat. Seeing this, Nanquan held it up and said: "If you can speak, I will not cut it." The assembly had no answer, so Nanquan cut it in two. Later he brought this up to Zhaozhou. Zhaozhou took off his straw sandals, put them on his head, and walked out. Nanquan said: "Had you been there, you would have saved the cat."
