百亿毛头百亿师子现，又作么生？”师便骑牛归。侍立沩山次，举前话方了，却见泰来。师云：“便是这个上座。”沩山遂问：“百亿毛头百亿师子现，岂不是上座道？”泰云：“是。”师云：“正当现时，毛前现？毛后现？”泰云：“现时不说前后。”沩山大笑。师云：“师子腰折也。”便下去。 师随沩山游山，到磐陀石上坐，师侍立次，忽鸦衔一红柿落在面前，沩山拾与师。师接得洗了，度与沩山。沩山云：“子甚处得来？”师云：“此是和尚道德所感。”沩山云：“汝也不得无分。”即分半与师。(玄沙云：“大小沩山被仰山一坐，至今起不得。”) 沩山问师：“忽有人问汝，汝作么生祇对？”师云：“东寺师叔若在，某甲不致寂寞。”沩山云：“放汝一个不祇对罪。”师云：“生之与杀，祇在一言。”沩山云：“不负汝见，别有人不肯。”师云：“阿谁？”沩山指露柱云：“这个。”师云：“道甚么？”沩山云：“道甚么？”师云：“白鼠推迁，银台不变。” 师问沩山：“大用现前，请师辨白。”沩山下座归方丈，师随后入。沩山问：“子适来问甚么话？”师再举。沩山云：“还记得吾答语否？”师云：“记得。”沩山云：“尔试举看。”师便珍重出去。沩山云：“错。”师回首云 现代汉语译本：‘百亿毛头百亿师子现，又作么生？’（如果百亿个毛头和百亿个狮子同时显现，又该如何理解呢？）” 仰山灵佑禅师便骑着牛走了。一次，仰山侍立在沩山灵佑禅师身旁，刚提起之前的话，恰好泰禅师来了。沩山说：“就是这位上座（指泰禅师）说的。”沩山于是问泰禅师：“百亿毛头百亿师子现，难道是上座您说的吗？”泰禅师说：“是。”仰山说：“正当显现的时候，是在毛前显现？还是在毛后显现？”泰禅师说：“显现的时候不说前后。”沩山大笑。仰山说：“师子的腰都折断了。”便下去了。 仰山灵佑禅师跟随沩山灵佑禅师游山，到磐陀石上坐下，仰山侍立在一旁，忽然一只乌鸦衔着一个红柿子落在面前，沩山捡起来递给仰山。仰山接过洗干净，递给沩山。沩山说：“你从哪里得来的？”仰山说：“这是和尚您的道德所感召来的。”沩山说：“你也不是没有份。”就分了一半给仰山。（玄沙师备禅师说：“好大的沩山，被仰山这么一坐，至今都起不来。”） 沩山问仰山：“如果有人问你，你打算怎么回答？”仰山说：“东寺师叔如果在，我不会感到寂寞。”沩山说：“免了你一个不回答的罪过。”仰山说：“生和杀，只在一句话。”沩山说：“不辜负你的见解，但有人不肯。”仰山说：“是谁？”沩山指着露柱（柱子）说：“这个。”仰山说：“说什么？”沩山说：“说什么？”仰山说：“白鼠推移，银台不变。” 仰山问沩山：“大用现前，请师父辨别明白。”沩山走下座位回到方丈室，仰山随后也进去了。沩山问：“你刚才问的是什么话？”仰山再次提起刚才的问题。沩山说：“还记得我怎么回答的吗？”仰山说：“记得。”沩山说：“你试着说看。”仰山便珍重地出去了。沩山说：“错了。”仰山回头说：“说什么？”

English version: 'If a hundred billion tiny hairs and a hundred billion lions appear simultaneously, what then?' The Master (Yangshan Lingyou) then rode off on his ox. Once, while attending to Weishan Lingyou, he brought up the previous conversation, and just then, Zen Master Tai arrived. Weishan said, 'This is the very monk who spoke of it.' Weishan then asked Zen Master Tai, 'Is it you who said, 'A hundred billion tiny hairs and a hundred billion lions appear'?' Zen Master Tai said, 'It is.' Yangshan said, 'When they are appearing, do they appear before the hair or after the hair?' Zen Master Tai said, 'When appearing, there is no before or after.' Weishan laughed heartily. Yangshan said, 'The lion's back is broken.' And then he went down. Yangshan Lingyou followed Weishan Lingyou on a mountain tour, and they sat on the Pantuoshi Rock. Yangshan was attending to him when suddenly a crow dropped a red persimmon in front of them. Weishan picked it up and gave it to Yangshan. Yangshan received it, washed it, and offered it to Weishan. Weishan said, 'Where did you get this?' Yangshan said, 'This is brought about by the virtue of the Abbot.' Weishan said, 'You are not without a share.' And he divided half of it to Yangshan. (Xuan Sha said, 'Such a great Weishan, but after Yangshan sat there, he has not been able to get up until now.') Weishan asked Yangshan, 'If someone asks you, how will you respond?' Yangshan said, 'If my uncle, the monk of Dongsi Temple, were here, I would not feel lonely.' Weishan said, 'I will excuse you from the crime of not answering.' Yangshan said, 'Life and death are only in one word.' Weishan said, 'I do not betray your insight, but there are those who will not agree.' Yangshan said, 'Who?' Weishan pointed to the pillar and said, 'This one.' Yangshan said, 'What does it say?' Weishan said, 'What does it say?' Yangshan said, 'The white rat moves on, but the silver platform remains unchanged.' Yangshan asked Weishan, 'When the great function manifests, please, Master, discern it clearly.' Weishan descended from his seat and returned to his abbot's room, and Yangshan followed him in. Weishan asked, 'What did you ask just now?' Yangshan brought up the question again. Weishan said, 'Do you remember my answer?' Yangshan said, 'I remember.' Weishan said, 'Try to say it.' Yangshan then respectfully went out. Weishan said, 'Wrong.' Yangshan turned his head and said, 'What does it say?' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ：“闲师弟若来，莫道某甲无语好。”

师在沩山前坡牧牛次，见一僧上山不久便下来。师乃问：“上座何不且留山中？”僧云：“祇为因缘不契。”师云：“有何因缘？试举看。”僧云：“和尚问某名甚么，某答‘归真’。和尚云：‘归真何在？’某甲无对。”师云：“上座却回，向和尚道：‘某甲道得也。’和尚问：‘作么生道？’但云：‘眼里、耳里、鼻里。’”僧回，一如所教。沩山云：“脱空谩语汉，此是五百人善知识语。” 师卧次，梦入弥勒内院众堂中，诸位皆足，惟第二位空，师遂就座。有一尊者白槌云：“今当第二座说法。”师起，白槌云：“摩诃衍法离四句、绝百非，谛听谛听。”众皆散去。及觉，举似沩山，沩山云：“子已入圣位。”师便礼拜。(沩山秀云：“依文解义即不无。忽然弥勒会中有个作者，才见伊道摩诃衍法，便云：‘合取两片皮。’非唯止绝仰山寐语，亦免使后人梦中说梦。”琅玡觉云：“且道圣众是肯仰山、是不肯仰山？若肯，又孤负仰山；若不肯，仰山犹如平地吃交。山僧今日不惜眉毛，与诸人说破：摩诃衍法离四句、绝百非。尔若举似诸方，诸方恁么会，入地狱如箭射。”东禅观云：“尊者白椎，圣众便散，不妨使人疑着，却待第二杓恶水泼了，方始惺惺迟 现代汉语译本： 仰山慧寂禅师说：‘如果闲师弟来了，不要说我没有什么好说的。’ 有一次，仰山禅师在沩山（沩山灵佑禅师）前坡放牛，看到一个僧人上山不久就下来了。仰山禅师就问：‘上座为何不在山中多留一会儿？’僧人说：‘只因为因缘不契合。’仰山禅师问：‘有什么因缘？试着说来听听。’僧人说：‘和尚问我叫什么名字，我回答‘归真’（回归真如）。和尚说：‘归真在哪里？’我无言以对。’仰山禅师说：‘上座回去，对和尚说：‘我能回答了。’和尚问：‘怎么回答？’只说：‘在眼里、耳里、鼻里。’’僧人回去，完全按照仰山禅师教的说了。沩山禅师说：‘真是个空口说大话的人，这可是五百位善知识才能说出的话。’ 仰山禅师一次躺着睡觉，梦见自己进入弥勒（Maitreya，未来佛）内院的众堂中，各位都已就座，只有第二位空着，仰山禅师就坐了上去。有一位尊者敲槌宣布：‘现在请第二座说法。’仰山禅师起身，敲槌宣布：‘摩诃衍法（Mahāyāna，大乘佛法）离四句、绝百非，仔细听，仔细听。’众人都散去了。醒来后，仰山禅师把这件事告诉了沩山禅师，沩山禅师说：‘你已经进入圣位了。’仰山禅师便礼拜。（沩山秀禅师说：‘按照文字解释义理，并非没有道理。如果弥勒会中有一个真正有作为的人，一听到他说摩诃衍法，就说：‘合上你的两片嘴皮。’这样不仅可以阻止仰山禅师说梦话，也可以避免后人梦中说梦。’琅玡觉禅师说：‘你们说圣众是认可仰山禅师，还是不认可仰山禅师？如果认可，又辜负了仰山禅师；如果不认可，仰山禅师就像在平地上摔跤一样。我今天不惜眉毛，为你们说破：摩诃衍法离四句、绝百非。你们如果把这话告诉各方，各方如果这样理解，入地狱就像箭一样快。’东禅观禅师说：‘尊者敲槌，圣众就散了，不妨让人疑惑，等到第二勺脏水泼下来，才醒悟过来，已经晚了。’）

English version: Zen Master Yangshan Huiji said, 'If Brother Xian comes, don't say that I have nothing good to say.' Once, Zen Master Yangshan was grazing cattle on the slope in front of Mount Weishan (Zen Master Weishan Lingyou). He saw a monk who went up the mountain and came down shortly after. Zen Master Yangshan asked, 'Venerable Sir, why don't you stay in the mountain a little longer?' The monk said, 'It's just because the karmic conditions don't match.' Zen Master Yangshan asked, 'What karmic conditions? Try to tell me.' The monk said, 'The abbot asked me what my name was, and I answered 'Returning to Truth' (Guizhen). The abbot said, 'Where is Returning to Truth?' I had no answer.' Zen Master Yangshan said, 'Venerable Sir, go back and tell the abbot, 'I can answer it now.' The abbot asks, 'How do you answer?' Just say, 'In the eyes, in the ears, in the nose.'' The monk went back and said exactly as Zen Master Yangshan had taught him. Zen Master Weishan said, 'What an empty talker! This is what five hundred good advisors can say.' Once, Zen Master Yangshan was lying down sleeping and dreamed that he entered the assembly hall in Maitreya's (Maitreya, the future Buddha) inner courtyard. Everyone was seated, except for the second seat, which was empty. Zen Master Yangshan then took the seat. A Venerable One struck the gavel and announced, 'Now, the second seat will expound the Dharma.' Zen Master Yangshan got up, struck the gavel, and announced, 'The Mahāyāna (Mahāyāna, the Great Vehicle) Dharma is beyond the four propositions and transcends the hundred negations. Listen carefully, listen carefully.' Everyone dispersed. After waking up, Zen Master Yangshan told Zen Master Weishan about this. Zen Master Weishan said, 'You have already entered the holy position.' Zen Master Yangshan then bowed in reverence. (Zen Master Weishan Xiu said, 'Explaining the meaning according to the text is not without reason. If there were a truly capable person in Maitreya's assembly, upon hearing him say the Mahāyāna Dharma, they would say, 'Shut your two lips.' This would not only prevent Zen Master Yangshan from talking in his sleep but also prevent future generations from dreaming within a dream.' Zen Master Langye Jue said, 'Do you say that the holy assembly approves of Zen Master Yangshan or disapproves of Zen Master Yangshan? If they approve, they would be letting down Zen Master Yangshan; if they disapprove, Zen Master Yangshan would be like falling on flat ground. Today, I will not spare my eyebrows and will reveal it to you: The Mahāyāna Dharma is beyond the four propositions and transcends the hundred negations. If you tell this to all directions, and all directions understand it in this way, entering hell will be as fast as an arrow.' Zen Master Dongchan Guan said, 'The Venerable One struck the gavel, and the holy assembly dispersed. It doesn't hurt to make people doubt, but it's too late to wake up until the second ladle of dirty water is poured.') -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 也。且如摩诃衍法离四句绝百非，道已道了，诸人还识仰山么？”) 师侍沩山行次，忽见前面尘起。沩山云：“面前是甚么？”师近前看了，却作此<<PIC>T47p0583_01.gif</PIC>相，沩山点头。

沩山示众云：“一切众生皆无佛性。”盐官示众云：“一切众生皆有佛性。”盐官有二僧往探问，既到沩山，闻沩山举扬，莫测其涯，若生轻慢。因一日与师言话次，乃劝云：“师兄须是勤学，佛法不得容易。”师乃作此○相，以手拓呈了，却抛向背后，遂展两手就二僧索。二僧罔措。师云：“吾兄直须勤学，佛法不得容易。”便起去。时二僧却回盐官，行三十里，一僧忽然有省，乃云：“当知沩山道‘一切众生皆无佛性’，信之不错。”便回沩山。一僧更前行数里，因过水，忽然有省，自叹云：“沩山道‘一切众生皆无佛性’，灼然有他恁么道。”亦回沩山，久依法席。 师因盐官会下，有数人到沩山不肯伏。一日因普请西庄搬禾次，师至岭头放下，后十数人亦到放下。师遂举起禾檐，向诸人前行一匝，云：“有么？有么？”其一行僧并无对。师云：“赚杀人。”便檐禾去。 沩山同师牧牛次，沩山云：“此中还有菩萨也无？”师云：“有。”沩山云：“汝见那个 现代汉语译本： ‘也’。比如摩诃衍法（Mahayana Dharma，大乘佛法）离四句（否定四种逻辑可能性），绝百非（超越所有错误的观点），道已道了（已经完全表达），你们还认识仰山（Yangshan，人名，即仰山慧寂）吗？” 仰山侍奉沩山（Weishan，人名，即沩山灵佑）行走时，忽然看见前面扬起尘土。沩山说：‘前面是什么？’仰山走近前看了看，却做了这个<<PIC>T47p0583_01.gif</PIC>相（原文如此，指某种手势或姿态），沩山点头认可。 沩山对大众开示说：‘一切众生皆无佛性。’盐官（Yanguan，地名，指盐官道场）对大众开示说：‘一切众生皆有佛性。’盐官有两位僧人前往探问，到达沩山后，听闻沩山的说法，深不可测，若有所轻慢。因此有一天与仰山谈话时，就劝他说：‘师兄必须勤奋学习，佛法不是容易的事。’仰山于是做了这个○相（原文如此，指某种手势或姿态），用手托着展示了，却抛向背后，于是张开双手向两位僧人索要。两位僧人不知所措。仰山说：‘吾兄确实必须勤奋学习，佛法不是容易的事。’便起身离开了。当时两位僧人返回盐官，走了三十里，一位僧人忽然有所领悟，于是说：‘应当知道沩山说‘一切众生皆无佛性’，相信没有错。’便返回沩山。另一位僧人继续前行数里，因为过河，忽然有所领悟，自叹道：‘沩山说‘一切众生皆无佛性’，确实有他那样说的道理。’也返回沩山，长久地依从沩山的教法。 仰山因为盐官门下，有几个人到沩山不肯信服。有一天因为普请（集体劳作）在西庄搬运稻禾时，仰山到达岭头放下稻禾。之后十几个人也到达放下稻禾。仰山于是举起禾檐（挑稻禾的工具），向众人面前走了一圈，说：‘有吗？有吗？’那些僧人都没有回答。仰山说：‘骗人啊。’便挑着稻禾走了。 沩山和仰山一起牧牛时，沩山说：‘这里还有菩萨（Bodhisattva，觉悟的有情）吗？’仰山说：‘有。’沩山说：‘你看见哪个？’
