明覺禪師語錄 3.94

3.94

舉：「洛浦久為臨濟侍者，到夾山問：『自遠趨風，乞師一接。』山云：『目前無闍梨，此間無老僧。』浦便喝，山云：『住住闍梨，莫草草怱怱。雲月是同，溪山各異，截斷天下人舌頭即不無，爭教無舌人解語。』浦無對，山便打。」師云：「者漢可悲可痛，鈍致他臨濟。他既雲月是同，我亦溪山各異，說什麼無舌人不解語？坐具劈口便摵夾山。若是箇知方漢，必然明窓下安排。」

He cited: "Luopu was an attendant to Linji for a long time. Arriving at Jiashan, he asked, 'Having hastened after your wind from afar, I beg the Master to receive me.' Shan said, 'Before my eyes there is no ācārya; here there is no old monk.' Pu thereupon gave a shout. Shan said, 'Stop, stop, ācārya! Do not be so hasty and hurried. The clouds and moon are the same; streams and mountains are each different. You may well cut off the tongues of everyone in the world, but how can you make a tongueless person understand speech?' Pu had no reply; Shan then struck him." The Master said, "This fellow is pitiful and lamentable; he brought disgrace upon Linji. Since for him clouds and moon are the same, for me streams and mountains are also each different. What talk of a tongueless person not understanding speech? He should have struck Jiashan right in the mouth with his sitting mat! If he were a fellow who knew his bearings, he would certainly have made arrangements beneath the bright window."
