佛果圜悟禪師碧巖錄 3.40

3.40

[29] Case: A monk asked Dasui: "When the kalpa-fire blazes through and the great trichiliocosm is entirely destroyed, I wonder, is this one destroyed or not?" (What thing is this one? This phrase is something patch-robed monks under heaven cannot grope out. Scratching in advance to await the itch.) / Sui said: "Destroyed." (An iron hammer without a hole thrown right at the face. Sunk his nostrils. Before he opened his mouth, he was already thoroughly tested and examined.) / The monk said: "If so, then it goes along with it?" (A great person beyond measure turned around in the vein of words. Sure enough, he mistook it.) / Sui said: "It goes along with it." (The first arrow was still light; the second arrow struck deep. Just this one, how many people cannot grope it out? When the water rises the boat floats high; when there is much mud the Buddha is big. If you say it goes along with it, where is it? If you say it does not go along with it, what then? Strike!)
