20.68

安州大安山省禪師（第三世住）問失路迷人請師直指。師曰。三門前去。問舉步臨危請師指月。師曰。不指月。曰為什麼不指月。師曰。臨坑不推人。問離四句絕百非請和尚道。師曰。我王庫內無如是刀。問重重關鎖信息不通時如何。師曰。爭得到遮裏。曰到後如何。師曰。彼中事作麼生。問如何是真中真。師曰。十字路頭泥佛子。

Chan Master Xing of Mount Da'an in Anzhou (residing in the third generation). A monk asked: 'A lost person who has strayed from the road asks the Master for direct pointing.' The Master said: 'Go before the triple gate.' The monk asked: 'Taking a step and facing danger, I ask the Master to point to the moon.' The Master said: 'I do not point to the moon.' The monk asked: 'Why do you not point to the moon?' The Master said: 'Facing a pit, one does not push someone in.' The monk asked: 'Leaving behind the four propositions and cutting off the hundred negations, please, Upādhyāya, speak.' The Master said: 'In my King's treasury, there is no such sword.' The monk asked: 'What about when layer upon layer of locks shut tight and news does not get through?' The Master said: 'How could you get here?' The monk asked: 'What about after getting here?' The Master said: 'What are the matters over there like?' The monk asked: 'What is the true within the true?' The Master said: 'A mud Buddha at the crossroads.'
