虛堂和尚語錄 8.20

8.20

上堂，舉：「僧問雲居：『山河大地從何而有？』居云：『從妄想而有。』僧云：『某甲想出一鋋金得麼？』居便休去。」師云：「雲居只箇休去，者僧無地藏身。」

Ascending the hall, he brought up [the following]: "A monk asked Yunju, 'From what do the mountains, rivers, and great earth exist?' Yunju said, 'They exist from deluded thought.' The monk said, 'If I imagine a bar of gold, can I get it?' Yunju just rested." The master said, "Yunju only just rested, and this monk had nowhere to hide his body."
