title: "湛然圓澄禪師語錄 · 臥雲深處不朝天"
description: "湛然圆澄禅师语录由明代禅宗高僧湛然圆澄所述，其门人明凡记录，丁元公与祁骏佳编撰。该书成书于明末佛教复兴时期，收录圆澄禅师的开示、法语、公案及书信，集中体现其禅学思想与修行指导，倡导直指人心、见性成佛的曹洞宗风。作为明代禅宗重要文献，该语录不仅传承了临济与曹洞宗的精髓，对后世禅修者具有深远影响，是研究明清佛教禅宗思想与实践的重要典籍。"

### 臥雲深處不朝天

> Hidden in Deep Clouds, Not Facing the Court

一真法界本無方。南北東西個裏圓。舉意已知千里隔。若欲凝然墮聖顏。

> The One True Dharma Realm is fundamentally without boundary— North, south, east, and west are all perfectly contained within it. As soon as a thought arises, you've already missed by a thousand miles. If you try to freeze it in place, you fall into the trap of sainthood.
