法演禪師語錄 1.18

1.18

Ascending the hall at the start of the summer retreat, a monk asked: "The five Indias begin the retreat by entrusting it to a wax person; I wonder how Shuangquan instructs the assembly?" The Master said: "Feet not treading the ground." Then he said: "At the start of the summer retreat, there is nothing with which to make offerings to the great assembly; I shall hold a family banquet to entertain you people." Thereupon he raised his hand and said: "Luoluo beckons, luoluo sways, luoluo sends off. Do not blame its emptiness and shallowness. Take good care of yourselves."
