圓悟佛果禪師語錄 1.39

1.39

上堂云：「獨掌不浪鳴，獨樹不成林，建法幢、立宗旨，須是互為賓主，安貼家邦。所以道：『我若坐時爾須立，我若立時爾須坐，我若孤峯獨宿，爾須偃息干戈，我若天上人間，爾須三頭六臂，然後可以光揚佛日。』且道：浩浩之中如何辨主？是處是慈氏，無門無善財。」下座。

Ascending the hall, [the Master] said: "A single palm does not clap in vain; a single tree does not make a grove. Establishing the Dharma banner and setting up the lineage style requires mutually being host and guest to settle the homeland. Therefore it is said: 'If I sit, you must stand; if I stand, you must sit. If I lodge alone on a solitary peak, you must lay down weapons. If I am in heaven or among humans, you must have three heads and six arms. Only then can the Buddha-sun be made to shine gloriously.' And tell me: amidst the vast expanse, how do you distinguish the host? / Everywhere is Maitreya; / At every gate there is Sudhana. / Descended from the seat."
