46.12

三年。袁州仰山有舍利石塔自然出現。高二十丈○黃庭堅謫居黔南。制酒絕慾。讀大藏經凡三年。常曰。利衰毀譽稱譏苦樂。此之八風於四儀中未嘗相離。雖古之元聖大智。有立於八風之外乎。非學道不知也（大般若經云。菩薩所行於利於衰於毀於譽於稱於𮗸於苦於樂。平等不變）○法雲秀禪師謂魯直曰。君作艶歌蕩人婬心。使逾禮越禁。其罪非止墮惡道而已。魯直自此不復作。李伯時善畫馬。師戒之曰。為士夫以畫行已可恥。況又作馬。伯時曰。無乃墮惡道乎。師曰。君思其神駿念之不忘。異日必入馬腹。伯時愕然。乃多畫觀音以洗其過。

Third year [1096 CE]. At Mount Yang in Yuanzhou, a stone relic stupa appeared spontaneously, twenty zhang in height. Huang Tingjian was exiled to Qiannan, where he abstained from alcohol and severed desires, reading the Tripiṭaka for three full years. He often said: "Gain and loss, defame and praise, eulogy and ridicule, sorrow and joy—these eight winds are never separated from the four postures. Even the primal sages and great wits of antiquity, did any stand outside these eight winds? Without studying the Way, one cannot know this." (The Mahāprajñāpāramitā Sūtra says: "The bodhisattva's practice toward gain and loss, defame and praise, eulogy and ridicule, sorrow and joy, remains equal and unchanging.") Chan Master Fayun Xiu said to Luzhi: "You write alluring songs to agitate people's lustful minds and cause them to transgress propriety and violate prohibitions. Your guilt will not merely be falling into evil destinies." Luzhi never composed them again. Li Boshi was skilled at painting horses; the master admonished him, saying: "For a scholar-official to make a reputation by painting is already shameful, how much more so painting horses!" Boshi said: "Would that not cause me to fall into evil destinies?" The master said: "You contemplate their divine swiftness and keep it in mind without forgetting; in days to come you will certainly enter the belly of a horse." Boshi was shocked and terrified, and thereupon mostly painted Guanyin to wash away his fault.
