明覺禪師語錄 4.111

4.111

有西天聲鳴三藏，到王大王處，王令玄沙驗過，玄沙以銅火箸擊鐵火爐，問三藏云：「是什麼聲？」云：「銅鐵聲。」沙云：「大王莫受外國人瞞。」師別云：「大王宜加信敬。」又別三藏云：「莫瞞外國人。」

There was a Tripiṭaka Master Shengming from India who arrived at the place of the Great King Wang. The king ordered Xuansha to test him. Xuansha struck an iron brazier with copper fire-tongs and asked the Tripiṭaka master, "What sound is this?" He said, "The sound of copper and iron." Xuansha said, "Great King, do not be deceived by a foreigner." The Master in an alternative said, "The Great King should increase his faith and respect." He also said as an alternative for the Tripiṭaka master, "Do not deceive a foreigner."
