### [7.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.7.21)

示眾：「多時不說禪，口邊生白醭，大眾苦相煎，便登曲彔木。匪論五家宗，不引傳燈錄，纔開兩片皮，業因招薄福。釋迦乾屎橛，達磨老臭禿，一人曲說直，一人直說曲，彼此大丈夫，肯受爾沸𡱰？罵佛謗祖師，定入拔舌獄，佛祖生冤家，魔王真眷屬。心地黑漫漫，口裏水漉漉，似恁出家兒，定滅瞿曇族。臘月三十朝，大笑却成哭。」召大眾云：「還識雲門村叟麼？曾聞一飽忘百饑，今日山僧身便是。」喝一喝。

> Instructing the assembly, \[the Master said\]:  
> "Not speaking of Chan for a long time, white mold grew around my mouth.  
> The assembly pressed me hard, so I climbed onto the curved-wood chair.  
> Without discussing the Five Houses of our lineage, without citing the Records of the Transmission of the Lamp,  
> Barely opening these two flaps of skin, karmic causes invite meager blessings.  
> Śākyamuni is a dry piece of shit; Bodhidharma is an old stinking bald-head.  
> One crookedly speaks the straight, one straightly speaks the crooked.  
> Both being great heroes, would they willingly accept your idle chatter?  
> Cursing buddhas and slandering patriarchs, one is bound to enter the tongue-pulling hell;  
> To buddhas and patriarchs, a born adversary; to Māra the evil king, a true kin.  
> The mind-ground pitch-black, the mouth dripping with saliva—  
> Renunciants like this are certain to extinguish Gautama's clan.  
> On the morning of the thirtieth day of the twelfth month, great laughter instead becomes weeping."  
> He called to the great assembly and said, "Do you still recognize the old village rustic of Yunmen? I once heard that a single full meal makes one forget a hundred hungers; today this mountain monk in person is that very one." He gave a shout.
