24.18

婺州齊雲寶勝禪師。僧問。如何是齊雲境。師曰。龍潭徹底清烏龜得繼名。曰莫即遮箇便是麼。師曰。道高龍虎伏八僊連太平。問如何是齊雲水。師曰。龍潭常徹底擬問即波瀾。曰莫只遮箇便是麼。師曰。古殿無香煙誰人辨清濁。曰未審深深處如何。師曰。闍梨欲識深深處。直須脚下絕雲生。

Chan Master Baosheng of Qiyun in Wuzhou. A monk asked, "What is the environment of Qiyun?" The Master said, "The Dragon Pool is clear to the bottom; the black turtle receives a succession of renown." [The monk] said, "Could it be just this?" The Master said, "The Way is high, dragons and tigers submit; the Eight Immortals join in Great Peace." [The monk] asked, "What is the water of Qiyun?" The Master said, "The Dragon Pool is always clear to the bottom; if you intend to ask, then there are waves." [The monk] said, "Could it be just this?" The Master said, "In the ancient hall there is no incense smoke; who can distinguish clear from turbid?" [The monk] said, "I wonder what it is like in the deepest depths?" The Master said, "Ācārya, if you wish to know the deepest depths, beneath your feet the arising of clouds must be completely cut off."
