隨州大洪慶顯禪師。廣安楊氏子。僧問。須菩提岩中宴坐帝釋雨華。和尚新據洪峯有何祥瑞。師曰。鐵牛耕破扶桑國。迸出金烏照海門。曰未審是何宗旨。師曰。熨斗煎茶銚不同。

Chan Master Qingxian of Dahong in Suizhou was a son of the Yang family of Guang'an. A monk asked, "When Subhūti sat in ease within the cliff cave, Śakra rained down flowers. When you, Upādhyāya, have newly occupied Hong Peak, what auspicious sign is there?" The master said, "An iron ox plows through the land of Fusang; leaping forth, the golden crow illuminates the ocean gate." The monk said, "I wonder, what lineage tenets are these?" The master said, "The iron that boils tea differs from the kettle."
