虛堂和尚語錄 6.376

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [6.376](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.6.376)

德臘俱高，孫枝益茂，以勤儉苦節　中興隷業，  
以老氣餘韻　平視諸方，眉稜垂雪，杖竹凝霜，  
步趨有人兮　清風可繼，澹常古道兮　劫外徜徉。

> Virtue and monastic age are both high; the branches of his lineage are ever more luxuriant. / With diligence, frugality, and austere self-discipline, he revived monastic duties; / With seasoned spirit and lingering resonance, he looked equally upon all quarters. / Snow hangs down from the ridges of his brows; frost congeals upon his bamboo staff. / There are those who follow in his footsteps—the pure breeze may continue; / On the tranquil and enduring ancient road, he wanders at ease beyond the kalpas.
