- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [2.199](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2006.2.199)

問如何是吹毛劍。陵云。珊瑚枝枝撐著月。問祖意教意是同是別。陵云。雞寒上機。鴨寒下水（雲門聞此語云。他日老僧忌辰。只舉此三轉語。供養老僧足矣）。

> He asked, "What is the hair-severing sword?"  
> Baling said, "Branch after branch of coral propping up the moon."  
> He asked, "Are the ancestral intention and the doctrinal intention the same or different?"  
> Baling said, "When chickens are cold, they perch on the loom; when ducks are cold, they plunge into the water."  
> (When Yunmen heard these words, he said, "In the future on my memorial day, merely citing these three turning phrases will be ample offering to this old monk.")
