### [8.12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.8.12)

上堂，僧問：「日面佛，月面佛，意旨如何？」師云：「翻來覆去看。」進云：「金烏急，玉兔速，又作麼生？」「兩重公案。」進云：「只如道三世諸佛六代祖師同一舌說，未審同那一舌說？」師云：「便是同也，截斷了也。」進云：「未審將什麼截？」師云：「將無舌底。」進云：「草賊大敗。」師云：「點。」師乃云：「大眾！月生一，快鷹俊鷂趁不及，月生二，德山臨濟失巴鼻，月生三，文殊普賢特地參，忿怒那吒把須彌，一擘百雜碎，折脚鐺子撞破無底籃兒，大悲千手一隻手中一隻眼也提不起，無言童子却解道：『前三三，後三三。』還委悉麼？萬仞峯頭都放却，多年破衲太𣰦毿。」

> Ascending the hall, a monk asked, "'Sun Face Buddha, Moon Face Buddha'—what is the meaning of this?" The master said, "Turn it over and look at it." \[The monk\] went on to ask, "'The golden crow is swift, the jade rabbit is fast'—what about that?" \[The master said,\] "A two-fold gong'an." \[The monk\] went on to ask, "It is said that the Buddhas of the three periods and the patriarchs of the six generations speak with the same tongue; I wonder, which tongue do they speak with?" The master said, "Even if it is the same, it has been cut off." \[The monk\] went on to ask, "I wonder, with what is it cut?" The master said, "With the one that has no tongue." \[The monk\] said, "The grassroots bandit suffers a great defeat." The master said, "Check." The master then said, "Great assembly! When the moon reaches the first day, swift falcons and nimble hawks cannot catch up with it; when the moon reaches the second day, Deshan and Linji lose their nostrils; when the moon reaches the third day, Mañjuśrī and Samantabhadra specially come to pay respects. Wrathful Nata takes Mount Sumeru and shatters it into a hundred pieces with a single rip; a broken-legged cauldron smashes right through a bottomless basket; of the thousand hands of the Great Compassionate One, not even a single hand or a single eye can lift it up; yet the Wordless Child knows how to say, 'The front three-three, the back three-three.' Do you understand thoroughly? Let go completely on the peak of ten thousand fathoms; the ragged cassock worn for years is excessively frayed."
