圓悟佛果禪師語錄 17.6

17.6

舉：「溈山普請次，靜版鳴，有一僧拍手呵呵大笑歸去，溈山云：『奇哉！此是觀音入理之門。』至晚問其僧：『適來爾見什麼道理？』僧云：『朝來未喫飯，聞版聲歡喜。』溈山云：『賺殺人。』鏡清云：『當時溈山有此一僧。』鼓山云：『當時溈山無此一僧。』」師云：「這僧洪音大振，直得一千五百人善知識眼目定動；及乎勘證將來，却打箇背翻筋斗。若不是溈山，爭見汗馬功高。後來道『有此一僧』，只得一半；道『無此一僧』，只得一半。今日板聲、鐘聲、魚聲、鼓聲齊振，或有箇拍手呵呵大笑，直向伊道：『觀音菩薩來也。』」

[The Master] cited: "While Guishan was at general labor, the silence board was sounded. A monk clapped his hands and laughing 'Ha! Ha!' returned. Guishan said, 'Wondrous! This is the gate through which Avalokiteśvara enters the principle.' That evening he asked the monk, 'What principle did you see just now?' The monk said, 'I had not eaten since morning; hearing the sound of the board, I was overjoyed.' Guishan said, 'This deceives people to death!' Jingqing said, 'At that time Guishan had this one monk.' Gushan said, 'At that time Guishan did not have this one monk.'" The Master said, "This monk raised a great resounding voice, directly causing the eyes of the kalyāṇamitra of fifteen hundred people to freeze; yet when brought to examination, he turned a backward somersault instead. Were it not for Guishan, how could one see the greatness of meritorious toil? Later it was said, 'He had this one monk'—that gets only half; saying, 'He did not have this one monk'—that gets only half. Today the board, bell, wooden fish, and drum sound all together; if someone claps his hands and laughs 'Ha! Ha!', I will say directly to him: 'Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva has come!'"
