19.13

趙州延慶可復禪師上堂。胡來胡現漢來漢現。忽然胡漢俱來時如何祇準。良久曰。落霞與孤騖齊風。秋水共長天一色參。上堂驀拈拄杖橫按膝上曰。苦痛深苦痛深。碧潭千萬丈。那箇是知音。卓一下下座。

Chan Master Kefu of Yanqing in Zhaozhou ascended the hall and said: "When a barbarian comes, a barbarian appears; when a Han comes, a Han appears. If a barbarian and a Han suddenly come together, how will you receive them?" After a long pause, he said: "'The sunset glow flies together with the solitary wild duck; the autumn water shares the same hue with the vast sky.' Engage [in the inquiry]!" He ascended the hall, abruptly held up his staff across his knees, and said: "Deep is the pain and suffering! Deep is the pain and suffering! / The emerald pool is tens of thousands of fathoms deep— / Who is the one that understands the sound?" He tapped it once and descended from the seat.
