32.23

潭州大溈了菴景暈禪師。筠州人。上堂。雲門一曲臘月二十五。瑞雪飄空積滿江山。隖峻嶺寒梅花正吐。手把須彌椎。笑打虛空鼓。驚起憍梵鉢提。冷汗透身如雨。忿怒阿修羅王。握拳當胸問云。畢竟是何宗旨。咄少室峯前亦曾錯舉。

Chan Master Liao'an Jingyun of Dagui in Tanzhou was a native of Junzhou. Ascending the hall, he said: “Yunmen's tune on the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth month: auspicious snow flutters through the sky, filling the rivers and mountains. On steep peaks the cold plum blossoms are just unfolding. Holding the Sumeru mallet in hand, laughingly strike the drum of empty space! Startle Gavāmpati into cold sweat drenching his body like rain. The wrathful asura king holds his fists against his chest and asks: ‘In the end, what is the lineage tenet?’ Bah! In front of the Shaoshi peak, it was once brought up wrongly too.”
