萬松老人評唱天童覺和尚頌古從容庵錄 5.41

5.41

示眾云。依草附木去。作精靈。負屈㗸冤。來為鬼祟。呼之則燒錢奏馬。遣之則呪水書符。如何得家門平安去。

Instruction to the assembly: Relying on grass and clinging to trees, they become sprites; bearing grievances and harboring resentments, they become ghosts and spooks. To summon them, paper money is burned and paper horses presented; to dispel them, water is incanted and talismans written. How can the household obtain peace?
