圓悟佛果禪師語錄 6.9

6.9

Recorded Sayings on Residing at Longyou [Monastery] on Mount Jin. When the Master received the imperial decree at Qianming in Gaoyou, he picked it up, showed it to the assembly, and said: "Do you see? When picked up, ten suns shine together; where raised, a thousand realms are radiant. Sent down from the ninefold heavens, personally handed over from the hands of the chief ministers—I dare not conceal it in bags or quilts; I invite the Controller of Monks to proclaim it once." Next, picking up the declaration, he said: "Precious lands on the tip of a hair, authoritative power beyond the threshold: it has rolling up and unfolding, illumination and function. Every word rolls like pearls and turns like jade; each one bends like grass before the wind. Although the pattern and colors have already been displayed, I invite you to pick it up once anew."
