萬松老人評唱天童覺和尚頌古從容庵錄 3.18

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [3.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2004.3.18)

舉。洛浦參夾山。不禮拜當面而立（相逢不下馬各自有前程）。山云。鷄棲鳳巢。非其同類出去（一手推一手拽）。浦云。自遠趨風。乞師一接（探竿在手）。山云。目前無闍梨。此間無老僧（影草隨身）浦便喝（盡筋截力）山云。住住且莫草草怱怱（會者不忙忙者不會）雲月是同。溪山各異（斜街暗巷生客頭迷）截斷天下人舌頭。即不無（只見錐頭利）爭教無舌人解語（不見鑿頭方）浦無語（長蛇陣前弓梢撲地）山便打（不意夾山却作臨際）浦從此伏膺（藝壓當行）。

> Case: Luopu visited Jiashan; without bowing, he stood face to face with him (meeting, they do not dismount; each has his own path ahead). Jiashan said: 'A chicken roosts in a phoenix's nest—you are not of the same kind; get out!' (pushing with one hand, pulling with the other). Luopu said: 'Having hastened here from afar drawn by your renown, I beg the master to receive me' (a sounding pole in hand). Jiashan said: 'Before my eyes there is no ācārya; here there is no old monk' (shadow grass accompanying the body). Luopu then shouted (exhausting his tendons, expending his strength). Jiashan said: 'Stop, stop! Do not be so hasty and careless (those who understand are not flurried; those who are flurried do not understand). The clouds and moon are the same; streams and mountains are distinct (in oblique alleys and dark lanes, a new guest gets bewildered). Cutting off the tongues of everyone under heaven is not without merit (he only sees the sharp point of the awl), but how can you make a tongueless person speak?' (he does not see the square end of the chisel). Luopu had no words (before the long-snake formation, the bow tip hits the ground). Jiashan then struck him (unexpectedly, Jiashan acts like Linji). From this, Luopu submitted in his heart (skill overpowers a master of the trade).
