Chapter 52 What is the fifty-first snow peak

What is the fifty-first snow peak Example: When Zen master Xuefeng Yicun lived in the nunnery, two monks came to worship.When Feng saw him, he held the door of the nunnery with his hand and let himself out of the cloud: yes What?Seng Yiyun: What is it?Feng bowed his head and returned to the nunnery.After the monk came to Chengtou to attend the ceremony (big+year-old) Zen master, the head asked Where are you coming from?The monk said: Come from Lingnan.Touyun: Have you ever been to Xuefeng?The monk said: I have been there.Tou Yun: What to say sentence?The monk gave the first words.Touyun: What did he say?The monk said: He bowed his head and returned to the nunnery without a word.Touyun: Hey, I will

I regret not saying the last sentence to him.If you say the last sentence to him, people in the world will not appreciate Xue Laohe.Monk to the end of summer, then Foreword please benefit.Tou Yun: Why didn't you ask earlier?The monk said: Don't dare to be easy.Touyun: Although Xuefeng was born in the same family as me, , don't die with me.To know the last sentence, only this is. After the Zen master taught his disciples, he also gave up the abbot to him, and he left the temple to live in a nunnery in the nearby mountains. His disciples welcome him to the temple to receive offerings and admiration from all parties.Occasionally, monks would visit him in the nunnery.

This rule is about Zen Master Xuefeng who lived in a nunnery in his later years, and monks from far away came to visit him. The door puts itself out of the cloud: what is it?This sentence is an inadvertent question.Nature is a "what?" rather than want an answer.This "what?" is the answer.But the monk also asked what?Then it became a real question.Xuefeng was caught by this When he asked back, he felt ashamed and bowed his head back to the nunnery, like a childish schoolboy. Similar to this, there is another koan ahead.It was Xuefeng who served as the head of dinner under the Deshan Xuanjian Chan Master Association in the past,

One day during the evening of fasting, Deshan went down to the Dharma hall with alms bowl. Xuefeng said: "The bell has not sounded, the drum has not sounded. Where is this old man going?" Deshan bowed his head and returned to the abbot without a word.Xuefeng raised his elder brother Yantou, and the head said: Big and small Deshan, don't know the last sentence.Tokuyama Hearing this, he asked the attendant to call Yantou and ask: "Do you disagree with the old monk?"Yantou secrets its words, and Deshan will go to the church in the future , is unusual.Yantou clapped his palms in front of the monastery hall and laughed, saying: I am happy that the old man will meet the last sentence, and the world will be helpless after that

What is he. Zen masters are very severe. When they scold people for being blind, they are really angry like children, but they don't stay angry for a long time.which is Moment he can really laugh.Because of such innocence, he blushed like a boy, he didn't If there is a loss, if there is no bad, I will be afraid of embarrassment.Zen Master Deshan was told by his fans, he bowed his head and returned to the abbot speechlessly, Xue When Chan Master Feng was questioned by the monk, he bowed his head and returned to the nunnery without a word, that's how it was. But can he know that this is beauty?

My brother said he was naive and awkward as a child, and then thought about it.It turned out to be beautiful, but I didn't know it at the time, Very troublesome, in fact, even this trouble is also beautiful.He said: I have only become self-aware in recent years.do it every time Even though he failed, he knew it was a good thing.Even so.Also still sad.On the other hand, I know This sadness of oneself is better than being optimistic and not sad.The last sentence Yantou said is this self-knowledge.Place After Zen Master Yi Deshan listened to his secret words, it will be different in the next day when he attends the hall.

Yantou said: "Although Xuefeng lives with me, he will not die with me." And he said: That is to say, this is the last sentence.No The same death has his own; there is nothing more than self-knowledge.I am not individualistic.Today there is someone Doctrine without personality, individual without self.Those who have him, that is, people in the world can't do anything to him. Therefore Zen Master Xuedou said: The last sentence is for you to say, it is the season of both light and dark double bottoms. ──The guest and host are both dark and bright in one machine. The same life also knows each other, and the different life is still different.

──Life is the same and life is different. Also special, yellow head and blue eyes must be screened. ──Shakya and Bodhidharma each have their own. Going back and forth from east to west, north and south, watching Qianyan snow together late at night. ──Although each has his own, he still sees and understands with me. It is like two swords fighting, the blades merge together . The last sentence was translated by Zen Master Xuedou.
