開山忌日上堂：「今日一會，是當山國一大覺祖師為諸人向一切處轉無上法輪全提底時節，直得大地六種十八相震動出大音聲，諸天音樂不鼓自鳴，梵唄詠歌自然敷奏，諸天寶華同時而雨，正當恁麼時，塵沙諸佛、諸大菩薩、諸阿羅漢、天龍八部諸鬼神等，各從他方而來集會，咸生歡喜踊躍稱慶，同時發聲而作是言：『善哉希有大覺祖師，快說此法，我等悉來共作證明。』證明即不無，如何是此法？」良久云：「雲有出山勢，水無投㵎聲。」

> Ascending the high seat on the founding patriarch's memorial day: "Today's gathering is the very season when the founding patriarch of this mountain, State Master Guoyi Dajue, completely brings forth the turning of the unsurpassable wheel of Dharma everywhere for everyone. The great earth shakes in the six ways and eighteen aspects, emitting a great sound; the music of the devas plays without being struck; Brahma-chants and songs naturally spread and perform; and precious flowers of the devas rain down simultaneously. Just at such a time, buddhas as numerous as the sands of dust, great bodhisattvas, arhats, the eight classes of devas and nāgas, and various ghosts and spirits arrive and assemble from other directions, all filled with joy, leaping and celebrating, simultaneously giving voice to say: 'Excellent! Rare Great Awakening Patriarch, swiftly preach this Dharma; we all come together to bear witness!' Bearing witness is certainly not absent, but what is this Dharma?" After a pause, he said, "Clouds have the momentum to leave the mountains; water has no sound plunging into the ravine."
