溫州淨光了威佛日禪師。僧問。如何是祖師西來意。師曰。一宿二宿程千山萬山月。曰意旨如何。師曰。朝看東南暮看西北曰向上更有事也無。師曰。人心難滿溪壑易填。問時節因緣即不問。惠超佛話事如何。師曰。波斯彎弓面轉黑。曰意旨如何。師曰。穿過髑髏笑未休。曰學人好好借問。師曰。黃泉無邸店。今夜宿誰家。

> Chan Master Jingguang Liaowei Fori of Wenzhou. A monk asked, "What is the meaning of the Patriarch's coming from the West?" The Master said, "A journey of one night, two nights; / The moon over a thousand mountains, ten thousand mountains." The monk asked, "What is the meaning?" The Master said, "In the morning look southeast; in the evening look northwest." The monk asked, "Is there still anything beyond?" The Master said, "The human mind is hard to satisfy; valleys and gorges are easy to fill." The monk asked, "The timing and conditions I do not ask about; what about the matter of Huichao's conversation on Buddha?" The Master said, "The Persian draws his bow; his face turns black." The monk asked, "What is the meaning?" The Master said, "Piercing through the skull, laughing without end." The monk said, "The student asks in earnest." The Master said, "In the Yellow Springs there are no inns; at whose home will you lodge tonight?"
