法演禪師語錄 2.59

2.59

Ascending the hall, he held up his staff: "This staff was not obtained from Tiantai or Nanyue, nor is it in this land or the Western Heaven. Tell me, where was it born? If you know where it was born, we can use it together; if you do not know—" He then leaned it [against the seat] and stepped down. Ascending the hall, he cited: "'O wondrous, clear, dhāraṇī-holding, unshakeable Honoured One, / Śūraṅgama King, rare in the world, / Dissolving my inverted thoughts across countless kalpas, / Without passing through asaṃkhyeyas I attain the Dharma-body.' Assembly! If you take this as Chan, you slander the sūtras; if you take this as sūtra, you slander Chan; if you lump them into one, it is muddled. If someone can leap out, they may consume ten thousand ounces of gold daily; if you cannot leap out, there is a place reserved for you."
