### [1.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.1.13)

上堂云：「智者聊聞猛提取，莫待須臾失却頭。」問：「丹霄獨步時如何？」師云：「脚下踏索。」進云：「天下橫行去也。」師云：「徐六擔板。」問：「學人乍入叢林，諸事不會，未審師還拯濟也無？」師云：「蘇州紙貴。」進云：「和尚豈無方便？」師云：「腦後拔榍。」師云：「爐鞴之所固無鈍鐵，良醫之門誰是病夫？向後鼻孔遼天，莫辜負人好。」

> Ascending the hall, the master said: "The wise, upon hearing just a little, boldly seize it; do not wait for an instant to lose your head." A monk asked: "What about when walking alone in the cinnabar sky?" The master said: "Treading on a rope beneath your feet." The monk continued: "Then traversing freely throughout the world." The master said: "Xu the Sixth carrying a board." A monk asked: "The student has just entered the monastic grove and does not understand anything; I wonder whether the master will save me or not?" The master said: "Suzhou paper is expensive." The monk continued: "Could the upādhyāya be without upāya?" The master said: "Pulling out the peg from behind the brain." The master said: "In the place of the forge, there is certainly no blunt iron; at the gate of a good physician, who is a sick man? Henceforth, with your nostrils pointing to the heavens, do not disappoint people's high hopes."
