法演禪師語錄 1.60

1.60

上堂，僧問：「如何是奪人不奪境？」師云：「秋風吹渭水，落葉滿長安。」學云：「如何是奪境不奪人？」師云：「路上逢人半是僧。」學云：「如何是人境俱不奪？」師云：「少婦棹輕舟，歌聲逐流水。」學云：「如何是人境俱奪？」師云：「高空有月千門掩，大道無人獨自行。」乃云：「數日已來連綿大水，所到之處皆有損傷，曹源一滴彌滿人間，衲僧一吸鼻孔遼天。且道名字既同，為什麼損益有異？誰知遠煙浪，別有好思量。」

Ascending the hall, a monk asked, "What is snatching away the person but not snatching away the environment?" The Master said, "Autumn wind blows across the Wei River; fallen leaves fill Chang'an." The student said, "What is snatching away the environment but not snatching away the person?" The Master said, "Half the people met on the road are monks." The student said, "What is snatching away neither person nor environment?" The Master said, "A young wife rows a light skiff; the sound of singing follows the flowing water." The student said, "What is snatching away both person and environment?" The Master said, "High in the sky is the moon, a thousand gates are shut; on the great highway no one is present, walking alone." He then said, "For several days continuous heavy waters have caused damage wherever they reached; the single drop from the source of Cao fills the human realm, and when a patch-robed monk takes a single sniff, his nostrils reach the sky. But tell me, since the names are the same, why are the harm and benefit different? Who knows that beyond the distant mist and waves there is another fine thought?"
