萬松老人評唱天童覺和尚頌古從容庵錄 2.14

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [2.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2004.2.14)

狗子佛性有。狗子佛性無（打做一團鍊做一塊）直釣元求負命魚（這僧今日合死）  
逐氣尋香雲水客（穿却鼻孔也不知）  
嘈嘈雜雜作分疎（競齧枯骨啀喍噑吠）平展演（沒蹺欺休廝誺）大鋪舒（材高語壯）  
莫怪儂家不慎初（一言出口駟馬難追）指點瑕疵還奪璧（白拈巧偷）  
秦王不識藺相如（當面蹉過）

> "A dog's buddha-nature: yes. A dog's buddha-nature: no. (Beaten into one lump, forged into one piece.) / A straight hook originally seeks a fish that will surrender its life. (This monk today deserved to die.) / Cloud-and-water wanderers who chase smells and hunt for scents (They don't even know their nostrils have been pierced.) / Clamor and bicker in making distinctions. (Vying to gnaw dry bones, snarling and howling.) / Spread out flat, (No deceit; stop lying to each other.) / fully displayed; (High talent, bold words.) / do not blame me for not being cautious at the start. (Once a word leaves the mouth, a team of four horses cannot overtake it.) / Pointing out a flaw, he takes back the jade; (A plain-daylight clever thief.) / the King of Qin did not recognize Lin Xiangru." (Missed right before his face.)
