五月旦日上堂云：「鐵樹𩰀鬆，石牛哮吼，火雲亘天長萬丈，金烏普照大光明，直得東海鯉魚振鬣揚鱗，南國波斯呈橈舞棹，文殊普賢不敢說理說事，德山臨濟不敢行棒行喝。正恁麼時，會麼？拄杖擬吞三世佛，燈籠百解瀉明珠。」復云：「釋迦老子道：『若有一人發真歸源，十方虛空悉皆消殞。』五祖和尚又云：『一人發真歸源，十方虛空築著磕著。』山僧即不然，若有一人發真歸源，十方虛空錦上鋪華。」

> On the first day of the fifth month, \[the master\] ascended the hall and said, "The iron tree spreads wide; the stone ox bellows. Fiery clouds stretch across the sky for ten thousand fathoms; the golden crow universally shines with great radiance. It makes the carp in the Eastern Sea shake its fins and raise its scales, and the Persian in the Southern Kingdom display his oars and dance with his paddles. Mañjuśrī and Samantabhadra dare not speak of principle or matter; Deshan and Linji dare not wield the staff or the shout. Right at such a moment, do you understand? The staff intends to swallow the Buddhas of the three periods; the lantern, in a hundred resolutions, pours forth bright pearls." He further said, "Old Śākya said, 'If there is one person who brings forth truth and returns to the source, empty space in the ten directions all completely disintegrates.' Master Wuzu also said, 'When one person brings forth truth and returns to the source, empty space in the ten directions bumps and knocks against it.' This mountain monk is not like that: If there is one person who brings forth truth and returns to the source, it is like adding flowers onto brocade throughout empty space in the ten directions."
