### 示旨一禪者

> Instructions for Chan Practitioner One

參禪、學教，二法門有深、有淺，然深者禪、淺者教，但形言語即麤相分皆教也。若達教之了義，即禪亦是如來禪，非祖師禪也。古香嚴所謂「昔年貧未是貧，今日貧始是貧。昔年猶有卓錐地，今日錐也無。」仰山曰：「如來禪許師弟會，祖師禪未夢見在。」嚴復曰：「吾有一機，瞬目視伊，若人不會，別喚沙彌。」仰山曰：「且喜師弟會祖師禪也。」如來禪、祖師禪自此分也。若會得此，禪道亦在其中，不須著著問人，自是有倒斷處耳。

> In studying Chan meditation and scriptural teachings, these two approaches have their depths and shallows. The deeper path is Chan, while the shallower is doctrinal study, yet anything expressed in words—even the coarsest distinctions—belongs to the realm of teaching. If you penetrate the ultimate meaning of the teachings, even Chan becomes "Tathagata Chan," not "Patriarch Chan." The ancient Master Xiangyan once said: "In former years my poverty was not true poverty; today my poverty is genuine poverty. In former years I still had a space to stand my awl; today I don't even have an awl." Yangshan replied: "I grant that you understand Tathagata Chan, brother, but you haven't even dreamed of Patriarch Chan." Xiangyan then said: "I have a device—in the blink of an eye, see it. If no one understands, I'll call for the novice." Yangshan then said: "I am delighted that my brother now understands Patriarch Chan." It was from this exchange that Tathagata Chan and Patriarch Chan became distinguished. If you truly grasp this, the essence of Chan is already present within it. There's no need to keep asking others; you will naturally have a place of resolution.
