A monk asked Zen Master Baling, “What is the sword that cut a blown hair?”
Baling answered, “Every branch of coral holds up the moon.”
[0301c10] 巴陵顥鑑禪師因僧問。如何是吹毛劍。師曰。珊瑚枝枝撑著月。
Every branch of coral holds up the moon—
When shooting arrows at a target is not satisfying to watch,
When the four seas have come to offer their tribute,
Heaven and earth shine together in the brilliance of this cool, glowing jewel.
[0301c12] 珊瑚枝枝撑著月。射斗鋒鋩未足觀。四海盡來歸貢後。乾坤同輝寶光寒。
