宏智禪師廣錄 8.353

8.353

熬煉渠經幾度難。炎炎爐鞴頭看。可中皓色從來瑩。
直下滄溟吸得乾。力展家風排淡薄。
妙將滋味破辛酸。道人意滿期歸也。雪擁茅簷不覺寒。

Boiled and refined, how many tribulations has it undergone?
Looking straight at the blazing bellows and furnace,
its immaculate white color has always been lustrous within;
directly draining the vast ocean dry.
Vigorously displaying the family style, it dispels blandness;
wondrously using seasoning, it breaks through bitterness and sourness.
The man of the Way's purpose fulfilled, he looks forward to returning;
snow heaping the thatched eaves, he feels no cold.
