圓悟佛果禪師語錄 16.29

16.29

舉：「僧問雲門：『佛法如水中月是否？』門云：『清波無透路。』僧云：『和尚從何得？』門云：『再問復何來。』僧云：『便恁麼去時如何？』門云：『重疊關山路。』」師云：「清波萬里，湛寂凝然，寶月凌虛，光吞群象。這僧泛一隻船，入雲門法海裏，引得一陣猛風，看伊把柁張帆，也不易當抵，及至下梢，可惜輸却一籌。且道：是什麼處是輸處？試辨看。」

He cited: 'A monk asked Yunmen: "Is the Buddhadharma like the moon in the water or not?" Yunmen said: "Through the clear waves there is no path." The monk said: "Where did the Venerable obtain it?" Yunmen said: "Asked again, where does it come from?" The monk said: "What about when one goes like this?" Yunmen said: "Layer upon layer of mountain passes."' The Master said: 'Clear waves for ten thousand miles, clear, still, and congealed; the jewel moon rides across the sky, its light swallowing all phenomena. This monk floated a boat into Yunmen's Dharma ocean and drew a gust of fierce wind. Looking at how he handled the rudder and spread the sail, it was not easy to withstand. Yet when it came to the end, what a pity that he lost a point. Tell me: where was the losing point? Try to discern it.'
