虛堂和尚語錄 3.30

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [3.30](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.3.30)

徑山石溪和尚遺書至，上堂：「雞足峯前，黃梅渡口，逗到冷泉幾掣肘，若謂凌霄非正傳，畢竟衣法屬誰手？野犴鳴，獅子吼，虛空昨夜翻筋斗。」

> When the posthumous letter of the Venerable Shixi of Jingshan arrived, the master ascended the hall: "Before the Chicken Foot Peak, at the Huangmei ferry, reaching Lengquan with obstacles at every turn—if one says Lingxiao was not the authentic transmission, ultimately into whose hands did the robe and Dharma fall? The jackal howls, the lion roars; empty space did a somersault last night."
