35.18

饒州薦福曹原生禪師。南劍人。分座雲居。出世妙果徙龜峯。後住薦福逾月化去。詠靈雲石。有偈曰。雲去雲來非有意。雲來雲去亦無心。有無截斷靈何在。突兀一峯青到今。

Chan Master Caoyuan Sheng of Jianfu in Raozhou was a native of Nanjian. He held a divided seat at Yunju, became abbot at Miaoguo, and moved to Guifeng. Later, he lived at Jianfu for over a month and passed away. Chanting on the Lingyun Stone, he had a gāthā that said: 'Clouds coming and clouds going are not intentional; / Clouds coming and clouds going are also without mind. / Cutting off being and non-being, where is the miraculous? / Towering lofty, a solitary peak has been blue until now.'
