圓悟佛果禪師語錄 7.7

7.7

On the eighth day of the fourth month, at the ascending of the hall to retain the monastic officers, he said, "A single palm does not clap in vain; a single tree does not make a forest. Let everyone lend a hand, and the broken-legged caldron can well bear its duty." He added, "Formerly in the Lumbinī Grove, / Today before the ancient Buddha's shrine. / Turning around the turning-mechanism of Yunmen, / We bathe the immaculate Golden Immortal. / The moment the ladle is taken in hand, / One misses the Patriarchal Chan."
