萬松老人評唱天童覺和尚頌古從容庵錄 1.2

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2004.1.2)

自佛祖拈花。迦葉微咲。雖云默露宗風。殊覺渾淪透漏。更逢後來好事兒孫。不知重惜家寶。各各拚身失命。平地生塵。澄波動浪。亂散空華。欺搖揑目。訛傳眾口。公案多端。天童雪竇殘唾。既苦不收。圜悟萬松夢語。又多不醒。幸得清涼老人。久知祖禰不了之殃。今日門徒。古顏盡將骨董搬出。分化四家。從新翻刻。嗚呼賍私現在。真賊難逃。敢請寶劍金剛。便與一齊砍斷。然後將他零碎評詞。共四海蒼生。作個太平歌唱也。

> Ever since the Buddha-Patriarch held up the flower and Kāśyapa smiled subtly, although it is said to have silently revealed the ancestral wind, in truth it leaked out from complete wholeness. Furthermore, later busybody descendants, not knowing how to cherish the family treasure, each risked body and lost life: raising dust on level ground, stirring waves in clear water, scattering sky-flowers in confusion, deceiving by rubbing the eyes, and falsely transmitting through many mouths. The gong'ans have branched into many threads; since the leftover spittle of Tiantong and Xuedou could not be gathered up, the dream-talk of Yuanwu and Wansong has mostly gone unwakened. Fortunately, the Old Man of Qingliang long knew the calamity of the ancestors' uncompleted affairs. Today, his disciple Gu Yan has brought out all these antiquities, divided them into the four masters, and newly recarved them. Alas, the stolen goods are present; the real thief cannot escape! I dare invite the vajra-precious sword to sever them all at once. Only then can his scattered words of commentary and appraisal be joined with the living beings of the four seas to sing a song of great peace!
