宏智禪師廣錄 4.226

4.226

鴻福聰和尚入寺上堂。僧問。正不立玄。偏不附物時如何。師云。金針雙鎖備。叶路穩全該。僧云。物外獨騎千里象。萬年松下擊金鐘。師云。更須跨一步十方能現身。僧云。手指空時天地轉。回途石馬出紗籠。師云。超方者委。師乃云。明月蘆華四望連。轉身人上合同舡。借功自有旁參事。歷歷機頭看正偏。所以道。偏不附物。正不立玄。若恁麼行履。菩提妙華遍裝嚴。隨所住處常安樂。

Ascending the hall on the occasion of Venerable Cong of Hongfu entering the monastery: A monk asked, "When the upright does not establish the profound, and the biased does not attach to things, how is it?" The Master said, "A pair of gold needle locks is prepared; the leaf-veined path is stable and encompasses all." The monk said, "Beyond things, riding alone on a thousand-mile elephant; beneath a ten-thousand-year pine, striking a golden bell." The Master said, "You must take yet another step to be able to manifest your body throughout the ten directions." The monk said, "When the hand points to empty space, heaven and earth turn around; on the return journey, the stone horse steps out of the gauze cage." The Master said, "Those who transcend conventions comprehend it." The Master then said: "The bright moon and reed blossoms connect on all four sides; the person who turns around boards the vessel of accord. In borrowing function, there is naturally collateral engagement; vividly at the loom, observe the upright and the biased. Therefore it is said: 'The biased does not attach to things; the upright does not establish the profound.' If one conducts oneself like this, the wondrous flowers of bodhi adorn everywhere, and wherever one abides, there is constant peace and joy."
