佛果圜悟禪師碧巖錄 5.34

5.34

雪竇善能於無縫罅處。出眼目頌出教人見。雲門道。六不收。雪竇為什麼却道。一二三四五六。直是碧眼胡僧也數不足。所以道。只許老胡知。不許老胡會。須是還他屋裏兒孫始得。適來道。一言一句。應時應節。若透得去。方知道不在言句中。其或未然。不免作情解。五祖老師道。釋迦牟尼佛。下賤客作兒。庭前柏樹子。一二三四五。若向雲門言句下。諦當見得。相次到這境界。少林謾道付神光。二祖始名神光。及至後來。又道歸天竺。達磨葬於熊耳山之下。時宋雲奉使西歸。在西嶺見達磨手携隻履歸西天去。使回奏聖。開墳惟見遺下一隻履。雪竇道。其實此事。作麼生分付。既無分付。卷衣又說歸天竺。且道為什麼。此土却有二三。遞相恁麼傳來。這裏不妨誵訛。也須是搆得始可入作。天竺茫茫無處尋。夜來却對乳峯宿。且道即今在什麼處。師便打云。瞎。

Xuedou is skilled at bringing forth eyes where there are no seams or cracks, eulogizing in verse to bring people to see. Yunmen said, "The six do not take it in." Why did Xuedou instead say: "One, two, three, four, five, six. Even the blue-eyed foreign monk cannot count them all"? Therefore it is said: "The old barbarian is only allowed to know; the old barbarian is not allowed to understand." One must leave it to the descendants of his house before it will do. Just now it was said: each word and phrase responds to the season and accords with the moment; if you can penetrate through, only then will you know it is not in words and phrases. If perhaps you have not, you inevitably form conceptual interpretations. The old master Wuzu said: "Śākyamuni Buddha is a lowly hired hand; the cypress tree in front of the courtyard: one, two, three, four, five." If you can see clearly and precisely under Yunmen's words, you will soon arrive at this realm. "At Shaolin, they vainly speak of handing it to Shenguang": the Second Patriarch was initially named Shenguang. Coming down to later times, they again spoke of his returning to India. Bodhidharma was buried at the foot of Mount Xiong'er. At that time, Song Yun, on an official diplomatic mission returning from the west, met Bodhidharma on the Western Ridge carrying a single shoe in his hand, returning to the Western Heavens. When the envoy returned and reported to the emperor, they opened the tomb and saw only a single shoe left behind. Xuedou says: In truth, regarding this matter, how was it transmitted? Since there was no transmission, "Rolling up his robes, he again spoke of returning to India." And tell me, why did this land then have two or three, transmitting it on in such a manner? Here there is indeed confusion; one must also comprehend it before one can enter into mastery. "India is vast and boundless, with nowhere to seek him; last night he returned to lodge facing Ru Peak." And tell me: right now, where is he? The Master then struck, saying, "Blind!"
