24.14

泉州福清廣法大師行欽。初住雲臺院。師上堂謂眾曰。還有人鑒得出麼。若有人鑒得。是什麼湖裏破草鞋。若也鑒不出。落地作金聲。無事久立。僧問。如何是佛法大意。師曰。諸上座大家道取。問如何是譚真逆俗。師曰。客作漢問什麼。曰如何是順俗違真。師曰。喫茶去。問如何是然燈前。師曰。然燈後。曰如何是然燈後。師曰。然燈前。曰如何是正然燈。師曰。喫茶去。問如何是第二月。師曰。汝問我答。師問僧。汝念什麼經。曰法華經。師曰。彼此話墮。

Great Master Guangfa Xingqin of Fuqing in Quanzhou first resided at Yuntai Cloister. The Master went up to the hall and said to the assembly: "Is there anyone who can perceive it? If someone can perceive it, what sort of worn-out straw sandal from a lake is it? If you cannot perceive it, upon falling to the ground it makes a golden sound. You have stood for a long time without anything the matter." A monk asked, "What is the great meaning of the Buddha Dharma?" The Master said, "All of you sthaviras, everyone speak for yourselves." [The monk] asked, "What is discussing the truth and countering the mundane?" The Master said, "What is a hired laborer asking?" [The monk] said, "What is according with the mundane and going against the truth?" The Master said, "Go drink tea." [The monk] asked, "What is before Dīpaṃkara?" The Master said, "After Dīpaṃkara." [The monk] said, "What is after Dīpaṃkara?" The Master said, "Before Dīpaṃkara." [The monk] said, "What is the exact time of Dīpaṃkara?" The Master said, "Go drink tea." [The monk] asked, "What is the second moon?" The Master said, "You ask, and I answer." The Master asked a monk, "What sūtra do you recite?" [The monk] said, "The Lotus Sūtra." The Master said, "Both of us have fallen into words."
