咸通七載初參道　到處逢言不識言  
心裏癡團若栲栳　三春不樂止林泉  
忽遇法王氈上坐　便陳疑懇向師前  
師從氈上那伽起　袒膊當胸打一拳  
駭散癡團獦狚落　舉頭看見日初圓  
從茲蹬蹬以碣碣　直至如今常快活  
只聞肚裏飽膨脝　更不東西去持鉢

> "In the seventh year of Xiantong I first investigated the Dao;  
> Everywhere I encountered words, yet did not recognize words.  
> Inside my mind the lump of foolishness was like a woven basket;  
> For three springs I was unhappy, resting by the forest springs.  
> Suddenly I met the Dharma King sitting on a felt rug,  
> And immediately presented my doubts and sincerity before the Master.  
> From the felt rug the Master arose like a nāga,  
> Bared his shoulder, and struck a fist right against my chest.  
> Startled, the lump of foolishness scattered, falling away in alarm;  
> Raising my head, I saw the sun for the first time round.  
> From this point on, stumbling and tottering,  
> Straight through to the present I am always cheerful and joyful.  
> I only hear that inside my belly is stuffed full and distended,  
> No longer going east or west to hold the alms bowl."
