大慧普覺禪師語錄 12.82

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [12.82](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.12.82)

這箇村和尚，少人能近傍，黑漆麁竹篦，佛來也一棒。沒秋毫人情，有萬千無狀，慈悲時觀音菩薩之所不如，瞋恚時阿脩羅王亦難比況。世上可憎可惡者，是這般底阿師，如何  
也有人畫渠供食。

> This rustic monk—few people can get near him. With his coarse bamboo comb of black lacquer, even if a buddha comes, he strikes a blow. Not an autumn hair of human sentiment does he have, but tens of thousands of insolent ways. When compassionate, Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva cannot match him; when wrathful, an asura king can hardly be compared to him. An obnoxious and hateful person in the world is an ācārya such as this; why would anyone paint him and make offerings of food?
