宏智禪師廣錄 2.166

2.166

蒲團禪版對龍牙。何事當機不作家。未意成褫明目下。
恐將流落在天涯。虛空那掛劍。
星漢却浮槎。不萠草解藏香象。無底籃能著活蛇。
今日江湖何障礙。通方津渡有舡車。

Cushion and meditation board facing Longya—
Why, confronting the dynamic, did they not show masterly skill?
It was not that they meant to strip him bare before his eyes;
They feared he would drift away to the ends of heaven.
How can empty space hang a sword?
Yet the Milky Way can float a raft.
Unsprouted grass can conceal a fragrant elephant;
A bottomless basket can hold a live snake.
Today, what obstruction is there on rivers and lakes?
At the thoroughfares and ferries are boats and carriages.
