No. 1301-A重刻圓悟禪師擊節錄題辭
圓悟禪師。電機波辨。色絲妙絕。可謂文武火爐鍛練學人矣。惜乎集錄者。採擷微言。而失之簡。加之三豕門五。覩者眼眩焉。頃予友淳公。蒐獵竺典。企予祖躅。以彌縫於闕。蓋藻鏡當臺。妍媿可逃乎哉。晨星落落。秦無人也。冀邈乎霧海。早刮目于南針。

The *Record of Striking the Section on Buddhahood* was composed by the eminent Song dynasty monk Yuanwu Keqin. It offers commentary and rhythmic critique on Xuedou Chongxian's *One Hundred Old Cases Held Up*. This work emerged during the Northern Song period, a peak of Chan (Zen) Buddhism, and centers on the teachings of the Yangqi branch of the Linji school. Through deep analysis of koans, it reveals the essential principles of Chan practice. The content blends scriptural teachings with Chan's dynamic essence, embodying the characteristics of *kanhua Chan* (koan introspection Chan). It is honored as a vital text within the Chan tradition. As one of the representative works of "literary Chan," it not only propelled the development of Chan theory but also exerted a profound influence on later koan studies. Holding a pivotal position in Buddhist history, it connects the past with the future.
