福州報慈院光雲慧覺大師上堂云。差病之藥不假驢馱。若據今夜各自歸堂去也。珍重。僧問。承聞慧覺有鎖口訣如何示人。師曰。賴我拄杖不在手。僧曰。恁麼即深領尊慈也。師曰。待我肯汝即得。師入府閩王問。報慈與神泉相去近遠。師曰。若說近遠不如親到。師却問曰。大王日應千差。是什麼心。王曰。什麼處得心來。師曰。豈有無心者。王曰。那邊事作麼生。師曰。請向那邊問。王曰。道師謾別人即得。問大眾臻湊請師舉揚。師曰。更有幾人未聞。曰恁麼即不假上來也。師曰。不上來且從汝向什麼處會。曰若有處所即孤負和尚師曰。即恐不辨精麁。問夫說法者當如法說。此意如何。師曰。有什麼疑訛。問故人面壁意如何。師打之。問不假言詮請師徑直。師曰。何必更待商量。

Master Guangyun Huijue of Baoci Monastery in Fuzhou ascended the hall and said, "Medicine that cures disease does not require donkey-loads. As for tonight, return to your halls, each of you. Take care." A monk asked, "I have heard that Huijue has a formula for locking the mouth. How do you show it to people?" The Master said, "Fortunately, my staff is not in my hand." The monk said, "In that case, I deeply receive your kindness." The Master said, "Wait until I approve of you; then you may." The Master entered the prefecture. The King of Min asked, "How far apart are Baoci and Shenquan?" The Master said, "Rather than speaking of far or near, it is better to arrive in person." The Master then asked, "Your Majesty responds to a thousand differences each day; what mind is this?" The King said, "Where would a mind come from?" The Master said, "Could it be that there is one without mind?" The King said, "How is the matter on that side?" The Master said, "Please ask toward that side." The King said, "Master of the Way, deceiving someone else will do." A monk asked, "The great assembly has gathered; we request the Master to expound [the teaching]." The Master said, "How many more people have not yet heard?" The monk said, "In that case, there is no need to come up here." The Master said, "If you do not come up here, where will you go to understand?" The monk said, "If there were a location, one would fail the upādhyāya." The Master said, "Then I fear you will not distinguish the refined from the coarse." A monk asked, "'One who speaks the Dharma should speak according to the Dharma.' What is the meaning of this?" The Master said, "What doubt or error is there?" A monk asked, "What was the ancient's intention in facing the wall?" The Master struck him. A monk asked, "Without relying on verbal explanations, please, Master, be direct." The Master said, "Why must we wait for further discussion?"
