Those who do not like to view it, or ridicule it for being unrhymed. Chan Master Zhao sighed, 'The virtuous monks of the past traveled around precisely because the mind of the sage had not yet been understood, and they rushed about making decisions and choices. Could it be for the sake of enjoying the scenery?' Later, he visited Chan Master Shoushan Shengnian and asked, 'What is the meaning of the 'Hundred Questions Rolling Up the Mat' (a type of Zen koan)?' Chan Master Shoushan said, 'The dragon's sleeve is brushed open, and the whole is revealed.' Chan Master Zhao asked, 'What is the teacher's meaning?' Chan Master Shoushan replied, 'Where the elephant king walks, there are no traces of foxes.' Chan Master Zhao then had a great enlightenment and said, 'The moon in the empty realm of the eternal blue pool, only after repeated laborious dredging should one know.' After bowing, he returned to the assembly. At that time, Monk Sheng of Yexian was serving as the head seat and asked, 'What principle did you see that made you so sure of yourself?' Chan Master Zhao said, 'It is precisely where I let go of my life.' Later, Zhang Gong, the prefect of Changsha, wanted to invite Chan Master Zhao to preside over four famous temples, but Chan Master Zhao said, 'I am just a monk who eats porridge and rice all year round. Transmitting the mind-seal of the Buddha is no small matter.' After eight invitations, Chan Master Zhao firmly refused. Later, Zhang Gong used the Prince's Courtyard to welcome him, and Chan Master Zhao closed himself in and slept. Chan Master Cong of Shimen pushed open the door and broke in, rebuking him, 'The Dharma is a great matter, and quiet retreat is a small matter. You are capable of shouldering the great Dharma, what time is it now that you want to sleep?' Chan Master Zhao woke up in surprise and said, 'If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have heard these words.' So he prepared his luggage and said, 'I am leaving.' After arriving at the Prince's Courtyard, he sat in meditation on a mat, and did not leave the mountain for thirty years. Chan Master Zhao, because of the bitter cold in Fenzhou, wanted to stop the night meditation, and felt that a strange monk came to ask for the Dharma. Li Gong, the prefect of Longde, used Chengtian Temple to welcome him, and the messenger went three times, but Chan Master Zhao did not go. The messenger was about to be punished, and came to Chan Master Zhao again and said, 'I must invite you to go together, otherwise I will be punished, I hope the Chan Master can understand.' Chan Master Zhao said, 'There should be a sequence, why must we go together?' Chan Master Zhao ordered people to prepare food and urged the luggage, saying, 'I am leaving.' He put down his chopsticks and passed away. (From 'Biographies of Eminent Monks') True Person Zhang Ping Shu, usually liked quietness and emptiness. At his residence in Danqiu, he met Ding Ru Pin Zi. Ding Ru Pin Zi took out the numbers of the Hetu Luoshu carried by the Dragon Horse, and Zhang Ping Shu understood the meaning of it. After a long time, when his work was about to be completed, Zhang Ping Shu said, 'Although my form is solid, the nature of original enlightenment has never been thoroughly investigated.' So he explored Buddhist scriptures, and when he read the Shurangama Sutra, he had some understanding. He wrote the 'Wuzhen Pian', and also wrote Zen songs and praises, quoting in the narrative the words from the Shurangama Sutra, 'Ten kinds of immortals, with lifespans of millions of years, do not cultivate correct enlightenment, and when their rewards are exhausted, they are reborn and scattered into all realms.' He also said, 'Those who cultivate this path should have a mind that embodies the great void, with inner and outer as one. If one establishes even a speck of dust, it will become an obstacle.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

渗漏。此不可言传之妙。晓得金刚圆觉二经则金丹之义自明。何必分别老释之异同哉。则知平叔乃求出离生死之法必归仗于佛为究竟尔。(群仙珠玉) 真人吕洞宾。河阳满故人。生于唐天宝间。世为显官。累举进士不第。因游华山遇钟离权。乃晋之郎将。避乱学养命法。将度吕公。首以财施之。一日吕侍行。钟拾一块石以药涂之即成黄金。钟遗之曰。前涂将粥之。吕问曰此仍坏乎。钟曰五百年坏。吕掷之曰他日误人去。钟复试之以色。命吕入山采药。化一小庐有美妇欢迎之曰。夫故久矣。今遇君子。愿不我弃。妇欲执手而近。吕以手托开云。毋以革囊秽于我矣。言讫其妇不见。即钟离也。于是授以金丹之术及天仙剑法。遂得游行自在。诗曰。朝游南越暮苍梧。袖里青蛇胆气粗。三日岳阳人不识。朗吟飞过洞庭湖。谒龙牙和尚问佛法大意。牙与偈曰。何事朝愁与暮愁。少年不学老还羞。明珠不是骊龙惜。自是时人不解求。因过鄂州黄龙山见紫气盘旋疑有异人所止。遂入。值机禅师上堂。师知有异人潜迹坐下。即厉声曰。众有窃法者。吕毅然问曰。一粒粟中藏世界。半升铛内煮山州。且道此旨如何。师曰守尸鬼。吕曰争奈囊中有长生不死药何。师曰饶经八万劫终是落空亡。吕不愤而去。至夜飞剑胁之。师已前知。 现代汉语译本 渗漏。这种妙处无法用语言来形容。如果明白了《金刚经》和《圆觉经》的道理，那么金丹的意义自然就明白了，何必去区分道家和佛家的异同呢？由此可知，陈平叔寻求脱离生死轮回的方法，最终还是要依靠佛法才能达到究竟的境界。（《群仙珠玉》） 真人吕洞宾，是河阳的老朋友。生于唐朝天宝年间（742-756年），世代都是显贵官员。多次参加进士考试都没有考中。因为游览华山时遇到了钟离权（钟离权，道教八仙之一）。钟离权原是晋朝的郎将，为了躲避战乱而学习养生之术，想要度化吕洞宾。开始时用钱财来施舍他。一天，吕洞宾侍奉钟离权出行，钟离权捡起一块石头，用药涂抹后就变成了黄金。钟离权把黄金送给吕洞宾说：‘拿去卖掉用来煮粥吧。’吕洞宾问道：‘这黄金还会变回石头吗？’钟离权说：‘五百年后会变回石头。’吕洞宾把黄金扔掉说：‘将来会耽误人的。’钟离权又用美色来试探他，让吕洞宾进山采药。钟离权变化出一个小茅屋，有一个美貌的妇人欢迎他，说：‘我的丈夫去世很久了，今天遇到您，希望您不要抛弃我。’妇人想要拉吕洞宾的手靠近自己，吕洞宾用手推开她说：‘不要用臭皮囊来玷污我！’说完，那妇人就不见了，原来是钟离权。于是钟离权传授给他金丹之术和天仙剑法，吕洞宾因此获得了**自在。诗中写道：‘早上游览南越，晚上到达苍梧，袖子里藏着青蛇，胆气豪壮。三天后，岳阳的人们都不认识我了，我吟诵着诗歌飞过洞庭湖。’吕洞宾拜访龙牙和尚，询问佛法的大意。龙牙和尚用偈语回答说：‘为什么早上忧愁，晚上也忧愁？少年时不学习，老了还感到羞愧。明珠不是骊龙吝惜，只是世人不明白如何去求。’吕洞宾路过鄂州黄龙山，看到紫气盘旋，怀疑有异人居住在那里，于是进入黄龙山。正赶上机禅师上堂讲法，机禅师知道有异人隐藏在听众中，就厉声说：‘大众中有偷学佛法的人。’吕洞宾毅然问道：‘一粒米中藏着世界，半升锅里煮着山河，请问这是什么意思？’机禅师说：‘守尸鬼。’吕洞宾说：‘即使我的囊中有长生不死的药又怎么样呢？’机禅师说：‘即使经过八万劫，最终还是会落入空亡。’吕洞宾很不服气地离开了。到了晚上，吕洞宾用飞剑威胁机禅师，机禅师事先已经知道了。

English version Leakage. This wonderfulness cannot be expressed in words. If you understand the principles of the Diamond Sutra and the Perfect Enlightenment Sutra, then the meaning of the golden elixir will naturally become clear. Why bother to distinguish the differences between Taoism and Buddhism? From this, it can be known that Chen Ping-shu's method of seeking liberation from the cycle of birth and death must ultimately rely on Buddhism to reach the ultimate state. (G群仙珠玉) Immortal Lü Dongbin, an old friend from Heyang. Born during the Tianbao period (742-756 AD) of the Tang Dynasty, his family were prominent officials for generations. He repeatedly failed the imperial examinations. Because he encountered Zhongli Quan (Zhongli Quan, one of the Eight Immortals of Taoism) while traveling in Mount Hua. Zhongli Quan was originally a military officer of the Jin Dynasty who studied the art of nourishing life to escape the war and wanted to transform Lü Dongbin. He initially used wealth to give to him. One day, Lü Dongbin served Zhongli Quan on a trip. Zhongli Quan picked up a stone, coated it with medicine, and it turned into gold. Zhongli Quan gave the gold to Lü Dongbin and said, 'Sell it to cook porridge.' Lü Dongbin asked, 'Will this gold turn back into stone?' Zhongli Quan said, 'It will turn back into stone in five hundred years.' Lü Dongbin threw the gold away and said, 'It will mislead people in the future.' Zhongli Quan then tested him with beauty, asking Lü Dongbin to go into the mountains to collect herbs. Zhongli Quan transformed into a small hut, and a beautiful woman welcomed him, saying, 'My husband has been dead for a long time, and today I meet you, I hope you will not abandon me.' The woman wanted to take Lü Dongbin's hand and get close to him, but Lü Dongbin pushed her away and said, 'Do not defile me with your stinky skin!' After he finished speaking, the woman disappeared, and it turned out to be Zhongli Quan. So Zhongli Quan taught him the art of the golden elixir and the celestial sword technique, and Lü Dongbin thus obtained **freedom. The poem says: 'In the morning I travel to Nanyue, and in the evening I arrive at Cangwu, with a green snake hidden in my sleeve, my courage is bold. Three days later, the people of Yueyang do not recognize me, and I fly over Dongting Lake reciting poetry.' Lü Dongbin visited the monk Longya and asked about the main idea of Buddhism. The monk Longya answered with a verse: 'Why worry in the morning and worry in the evening? If you don't study when you are young, you will be ashamed when you are old. The pearl is not cherished by the dragon, but people don't know how to seek it.' Lü Dongbin passed by Huanglong Mountain in Ezhou and saw purple air swirling, suspecting that an extraordinary person lived there, so he entered Huanglong Mountain. He happened to be attending a lecture by Zen Master Ji, who knew that an extraordinary person was hiding in the audience, so he sternly said, 'There are people in the audience who are stealing the Dharma.' Lü Dongbin resolutely asked, 'A grain of rice contains the world, and half a liter of pot cooks the mountains and rivers, what does this mean?' Zen Master Ji said, 'A corpse-guarding ghost.' Lü Dongbin said, 'What if I have the elixir of immortality in my bag?' Zen Master Ji said, 'Even after eighty thousand kalpas, it will eventually fall into emptiness.' Lü Dongbin left unconvinced. At night, Lü Dongbin threatened Zen Master Ji with a flying sword, but Zen Master Ji already knew about it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
