明覺禪師語錄 2.41

2.41

有禪者兮曠發靈機，出洪都兮聲光步隨，一文一技不為用，方內方外誰論之。春風來兮何所別，何曾拂盡古巖雪，極目寥寥思遠人，曹谿堪共此時飾。清兮清苦宜存歷，亮兮辜馬休同跡，彈指凋殘六葉華，西山一去斷消息。

There is a Chan practitioner whose numinous potential broadly unfolds; / Emerging from Hongdu, his fame and brilliance follow in his footsteps. / Not a single literary craft or skill is put to use; / Inside or outside the realm, who could discuss it? / The spring wind arrives—what is there to part from? / When has it ever swept clean the snow on the ancient crags? / Gazing as far as the eye can see into vast emptiness, I think of the distant traveler; / Caoxi is fit to share in embellishing this moment. / Clear and pure, bitter and arduous, you ought to preserve your practice; / Bright and discerning, do not share tracks with a broken horse. / In the snap of a finger, the six-petaled flower withers; / Going off once to the Western Mountains, news is cut off.
