大慧普覺禪師語錄 7.23

7.23

示眾，舉：「提婆達多在地獄中，世尊令阿難傳問云：『汝在地獄中，可忍受否？』云：『我雖在地獄中，如三禪天樂。』世尊又令阿難傳問：『爾還求出否？』云：『待世尊入地獄，我即出。』阿難云：『世尊是三界大師，豈有入地獄分？』云：『世尊既無入地獄分，我豈有出地獄分？』」師云：「既無出分又無入分，喚甚麼作釋迦老子？喚甚麼作提婆達多？喚甚麼作地獄？還委悉麼？自携瓶去沽村酒，却著衫來作主人。」

Instructing the assembly, he brought up the following: "When Devadatta was in hell, the World-Honoured One had Ānanda send an inquiry, saying, 'Can you endure it being in hell?' He said, 'Although I am in hell, it is like the bliss of the third dhyāna heaven.' The World-Honoured One again had Ānanda send an inquiry: 'Do you still seek to get out?' He said, 'I will get out as soon as the World-Honoured One enters hell.' Ānanda said, 'The World-Honoured One is the Great Master of the Three Realms; how could he have any share in entering hell?' He said, 'Since the World-Honoured One has no share in entering hell, how could I have any share in getting out of hell?'"
The Master said, "Since there is neither a share of getting out nor a share of entering, what do you call old man Śākya? What do you call Devadatta? What do you call hell? Do you understand? Carrying the jug myself to buy village wine, yet putting on a robe to act as the host."
