大慧普覺禪師宗門武庫 1.64

師云：「張無盡見兜率悅却譏晦堂，有頌曰：『久嚮黃龍山裏龍，到來只見住山翁，須知背觸拳頭外，別有靈犀一點通。』當時諸方莫不歎服。山僧後來見得，惜乎無盡已死，彼云：『須知背觸拳頭外，別有靈犀一點通。』若將此頌要見晦堂，不亦遠乎？靈源和尚甞有贊云：『三問逆摧，超玄機於鷲嶺，一拳垂示，露赤體於龍峯。聞時富貴，見後貧窮，年老浩歌歸去樂，從教人喚住山翁。』黃魯直聞而笑曰：『無盡所言靈犀一點，此藞苴為虛空安耳穴。』靈源作贊分雪之，是寫一字不著畫，五祖云：『三乘人出三界獄，小果必藉方便，如穴地穿壁及自天窓中出，唯得道菩薩，從初入地獄，先與獄子不相疑，一切如常。一日寄信去，覓得酒肉與獄子喫，至大醉取獄子衣服行纏頭巾，結束自身，却將自己破衣服，與獄子著，移枷在獄子項上，坐在牢裏，却自手捉獄子藤條，公然從大門出去。』參禪人須是恁麼始得。」

The Master said, "Zhang Wujin, having met Doushuai Yue, mocked Huitang instead, composing a verse: 'Long aspiring toward the dragon in Mount Huanglong, / Arriving here, I saw only an old monk dwelling in the mountain. / One must know that beyond the fist that turns back and touches, / There is another single spot of magical rhinoceros communicating through.' At that time, throughout all quarters people admired and accepted it. When I later came to see this, I regretted that Wujin had already died. He said, 'One must know that beyond the fist that turns back and touches, there is another single spot of magical rhinoceros communicating through.' If one relies on this verse to see Huitang, is it not far off? Master Lingyuan once wrote a eulogy saying: 'Three questions countered and crushed, surpassing the subtle mechanism on Vulture Peak; / A single fist held down to show, exposing the naked body on Dragon Peak. / When hearing of it, wealthy and noble; after seeing it, poor; / In old age singing loudly, joyful at returning, / Leaving it to others to call him an old monk dwelling in the mountain.' When Huang Luzhi heard it, he laughed and said, 'What Wujin called a single spot of magical rhinoceros is a slovenly attempt to bore ear holes in empty space.' Lingyuan's composing a eulogy to clear his name was writing a character without placing a stroke. Wuzu said, 'When practitioners of the Three Vehicles escape the prison of the three realms, those of the small fruit must rely on expedients, like burrowing through the ground, piercing walls, or escaping from a skylight. Only a bodhisattva who has attained the Way, from the moment he enters hell, first acts without arousing the jailer's suspicion, everything being as normal. One day he sends a message to procure wine and meat for the jailer to eat; when the jailer is dead drunk, he takes the jailer's clothes, gaiters, and turban, dresses himself in them, puts his own tattered clothes on the jailer, transfers the cangue to the jailer's neck, and has him sit in the cell; then, holding the jailer's rattan rod in his own hand, he walks openly out through the main gate.' A person who investigates Chan must be like this before he will do."
