Pioneering School's Teachings (Selections from "The Emperor's Inquiry on the Way") (先覺宗乘(選錄「帝王問道錄」))


宋徽宗政和三年,嘉州巡捕官奏:「本部路傍有大古樹因風摧折,中有一僧禪定,鬚髮被體指爪遶身。」帝降旨令肩輿入京,命西天總持三藏以金磬出其定。遂問:「何代僧?」曰:「我乃東林遠法師之弟,名慧持,因遊峨嵋入定於樹。遠法師無恙否?」三藏曰:「遠法師,晉人也,化去七百年矣!」持不復語,三藏問師:「既至此,欲歸何所?」持曰:「陳留縣。」復入定。帝製三偈,令繪像頒行。偈曰:「七百年來老古錐,定中消息許誰知;爭如隻履西歸去,生死何勞木作皮。藏山於澤亦藏身,天下無藏道可親;寄語莊周休擬議,樹中不是負趨人。有情身不是無情,彼此人人定裏身;會得菩提本無樹,不須辛苦問盧能。」
