萬松老人評唱天童覺和尚頌古從容庵錄 1.81

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.81](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2004.1.81)

示眾云。卞和三獻。未免遭刑。夜光投人。鮮不按劍。卒客無卒主。宜假不宜真。差珍異寶用不著。死猫兒頭拈出。看。

> Instruction to the assembly: Bian He presenting \[the jade\] three times could not avoid undergoing punishment; when the luminescent jewel is tossed at people, few fail to clasp their swords. A sudden guest has no sudden host; one should use the fake, not the real. Rare treasures and extraordinary gems cannot be used—bring forth the dead cat's head and look!
