密菴和尚語錄 1.44

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1999.1.44)

冬至，上堂：「日南長至，慶無不利，石笋暗抽條，寒巖增暖氣。東村王老，半醉半醒，林下道人，沒巴沒鼻。」驀拈拄杖云：「若人於此徹根源，勝似燃燈親授記。」擲拄杖，下座。

> On the winter solstice, ascending the hall: "The sun reaches the southernmost point on the winter solstice, a celebration where nothing is unfavorable. Stone bamboo shoots secretly sprout shoots; cold crags take on warmth. Old Man Wang of the eastern village is half drunk and half sober; the person of the Way under the trees has neither handle nor clue." Suddenly taking up his staff, he said: "If someone penetrates to the root and source here, it is better than Dīpaṃkara personally bestowing the prophecy." Throwing down his staff, he descended from the seat.
