圓悟佛果禪師語錄 2.41

2.41

開爐上堂，僧問：「古者道：『敲空作響，擊木無聲。』如何是敲空作響？」師云：「釋迦老子來也。」師乃云：「三世諸佛向火焰裏轉大法輪，熱發作什麼火焰？為三世諸佛說法，三世諸佛立地聽，也須照顧眉毛。若是聊聞徹骨徹髓，信得及見得徹，直下與三世諸佛同生同死，與火焰同起同滅，當處解脫得大安隱，衲被蒙頭便是箇清涼世界。苟或未然，只知事逐眼前過，不覺老從頭上來。」

Upon opening the hearth, he ascended the hall. A monk asked, "An ancient said: 'Striking the void makes a sound; hitting wood is soundless.' What is striking the void making a sound?" The Master said, "Old man Śākya has arrived." The Master then said, "The Buddhas of the three periods turn the great dharmacakra within the flames. Why get feverish? The flames expound the Dharma for the Buddhas of the three periods, and the Buddhas of the three periods stand listening; yet one must still take care of one's eyebrows. If you just barely hear it penetrating bone and marrow, believe it completely, and see it thoroughly, then right here you will live and die together with the Buddhas of the three periods, arise and perish together with the flames, attaining liberation on the spot and gaining great peace. A patched robe covering the head is just a world of pure cool. If this is not yet so, you only know that affairs pass before your eyes, unaware that old age is arriving over your head."
