溫州雁蕩靈巖寺德初禪師。僧問。大眾臨筵如何舉唱。師曰。謝塘青草年年長。歐浦潮來日日新。僧云。莫便是為人處也無。師曰。且莫錯認。問棒喝齊收請師相見。師曰。老僧不如汝。僧云。專為流通。師曰。堪作什麼。問心生種種法生。如何是種種法生。師曰。我與汝葛藤。僧云。今日已見於師矣。師曰。且喜勿交涉。僧禮拜。師曰。孤負殺人。師乃曰。問得須彌岌峇海水騰波。祖道門中未有少分。何故從門入者不是家珍。本自圓融何須特地。人人踞妙高峯頂。箇箇徹諸法根源。不假慈氏樓閣。今日一時明取。還明得也無。若也明得故號丈夫。不孤千聖深恩。亦答國王至化。珍重。

> Chan Master Lingyan Temple Dechu of Mount Yandang in Wenzhou. A monk asked, "When the great assembly attends the banquet, how do you instruct them?" The Master said, "The green grass of Xietang grows year after year; / The tide of Oupu arrives fresh day by day." The monk said, "Could that be the way to help people?" The Master said, "Do not mistakenly recognize it." He asked, "When the stick and shout are both held back, please meet with me, Master." The Master said, "This old monk is not as good as you." The monk said, "Dedicated to spreading it widely." The Master said, "What is it good for?" He asked, "'When mind arises, various phenomena arise.' What is the arising of various phenomena?" The Master said, "I am entangling with you in vine-creepers." The monk said, "Today I have already seen the Master." The Master said, "Happily, there is no connection." The monk bowed. The Master said, "Failing people to death." The Master then said, "Even if your questions could make Mount Sumeru tilt and topple and the ocean waters surge in waves, in the gate of the ancestral Dao you would not have the slightest portion. Why? What enters through the gate is not the family treasure. Fundamentally round and fused, why need special efforts? Everyone occupies the peak of the Wondrous High Mountain; each penetrates the source of all phenomena. Without relying on Maitreya's towers, understand it all at once today. Can you understand it? If you understand it, you are therefore called a true hero, not failing the deep grace of the thousand sages, and also repaying the supreme transformation of the sovereign. Take care."
