### [2.42](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.2.42)

冬夜小參。鑽氷取火憑誰信。𢬵命工夫入死門。脫體一交翻得活。金剛正焰透乾坤。瑞岩門下。以此見一陽來復萬物咸新。露柱燈籠歡喜說偈。五臺山上雲蒸飯。佛殿階前狗尿天。剎竿頭上煎䭔子。三箇胡孫夜簸錢。咄。落草之談。應時納祐。只今眾中。莫有句外透關底麼。出來點眼。慶快平生。其或未然。黃梅石女繡鴛鴦。一日新添一線長。

> Minor convocation on a winter night:  
> "Drilling ice to obtain fire—on whom does one rely to believe it?  
> With effort that stakes one's life, enter the gate of death.  
> Shedding the body completely, one tumble turns around and comes alive;  
> the true flame of vajra penetrates heaven and earth.  
> Under Ruiyan's gate, by this we see the single yang returning and all things made entirely new.  
> Exposed pillars and lanterns joyfully speak a verse:  
> 'On Mount Wutai, clouds steam rice;  
> in front of the Buddha hall steps, a dog urinates toward the sky.  
> At the tip of the flag pole, fry rice cakes;  
> three monkeys toss coins in the night.'  
> Bah! Talk of descending into the weeds welcomes timely blessings.  
> Right now in the assembly, is there anyone who penetrates the barrier beyond phrases?  
> Come forth, dot the eyes, and rejoice for a lifetime.  
> If not yet so:  
> The stone woman of Huangmei embroiders mandarin ducks;  
> each day newly adds a thread's length."
