泉州福清院玄訥禪師高麗人也。初住福清道場傳象骨之燈。學者歸慕。泉守王公問。如何是宗乘中事。師叱之。僧問。如何是觸目菩提。師曰。闍梨失却半年糧。曰為什麼失却半年糧。師曰。只為圖他一斗米。問如何是清淨法身。師曰。蝦蟇曲蟮。問教云。唯一堅密身一切塵中現。如何是堅密身。師曰。驢馬猫兒。曰乞師指示。師曰。驢馬也不會。問如何是物物上辨明。師展一足示之。師住福清三十年。大闡玄風終於本山。

> Chan Master Xuannai of Fuqing Cloister in Quanzhou was a native of Goryeo. When he first resided at the Fuqing bodhimanda, he transmitted the lamp of Xianggu (Xuefeng). Students turned to him in devotion. The prefect of Quanzhou, Lord Wang, asked, 'What is the matter within the ancestral vehicle?' The master shouted at him. A monk asked, 'What is bodhi right before the eyes?' The master said, 'Ācārya, you have lost half a year's provisions.' \[The monk\] said, 'Why have I lost half a year's provisions?' The master said, 'Just because you were scheming for a dou of his rice.' \[A monk\] asked, 'What is the pure Dharmakāya?' The master said, 'Toads and earthworms.' \[A monk\] asked, 'The teaching says, "There is only one firm and solid body, manifesting in all dust-motes." What is the firm and solid body?' The master said, 'Donkeys, horses, and cats.' \[The monk\] said, 'I beg the master to instruct me.' The master said, 'You do not even understand donkeys and horses.' \[A monk\] asked, 'What is distinguishing clearly upon each and every thing?' The master extended one foot and showed it to him. The master resided at Fuqing for thirty years, greatly propagating the profound style, and passed away at his home mountain.
