### [1.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.1.38)

上堂，僧問：「祖意敬意是同是別？」師云：「兩輪交互照。」進云：「恁麼則匹上不足也。」師云：「又被風吹別調中。」問：「如何是涅槃心？」師云：「萬派悉歸源。」進云：「如何是差別智？」師云：「千差俱不動。」進云：「都來不消得去也。」師云：「儞放寶劍，在什麼處？」僧云：「高著眼。」師云：「話作兩橛。」乃云：「遠問近對，萬世如今；舉東明西，千途一轍。無事上演事，無為處作為，非色非聲青黃順逆，非心非佛賓主交參，全承此箇威光，不在別處流轉。且道：此箇是什麼？若喚作佛，頭上安頭；若喚作法，無繩自縛；祖師巴鼻是抱贓叫屈，向上機關是揚聲止響，直得總不恁麼，始較些子。且道：既總不恁麼，因什麼却較些子？莫怪從前多意氣，他家曾謁聖明君。」下座。

> Ascending the hall, a monk asked, "Are the patriarchal intention and the reverent intention identical or different?"  
> The Master said, "The two wheels illuminate each other alternately."  
> \[The monk\] continued, "In that case, it is not adequate to match them."  
> The Master said, "Blown by the wind into another tune again."  
> \[A monk\] asked, "What is the nirvāṇa mind?"  
> The Master said, "The ten thousand streams all return to the source."  
> \[The monk\] continued, "What is discriminative wisdom?"  
> The Master said, "The thousand distinctions are all unmoving."  
> \[The monk\] continued, "Then altogether there is no need for anything."  
> The Master said, "Where have you put the jewel sword?"  
> The monk said, "Fixing my eyes high."  
> The Master said, "Dividing the talk into two halves."  
> Then \[the Master\] said: "Asking about the distant and answering with the near—ten thousand generations are like this right now; raising the east and illuminating the west—a thousand paths share the same rut. Displaying matters where there is no matter, acting where there is non-action: neither form nor sound, blue, yellow, accord, or discord; neither mind nor Buddha, host and guest intermingle. Fully endowed with this awesome brilliance, it does not cycle elsewhere. Tell me: what is this? If you call it Buddha, that is adding a head on top of a head; if you call it Dharma, that is binding oneself without a rope. The ancestral teacher's nose is crying out injustice while holding the stolen goods; the transcendent mechanism is shouting to stop the echo. Only when it is entirely not like this will you be a little bit closer. Tell me: since it is entirely not like this, why is it a little bit closer? / Do not blame the abundant high spirits from before; / His family once had audience with the sagacious and enlightened ruler. / Descended from the seat."
