    佛与牛粪 传说有一次苏东坡拜访高僧佛印,两个人正谈的兴起,苏东坡突然披上佛印的袈裟问:“你看我像什么?” 佛印答:“像佛。”,然后问苏东坡:“你看老朽像什么?” 苏东坡正得意忘形,便大笑着说:“我看你像一滩牛粪!” 佛印笑了笑不再言语。 事后,苏东坡在得意之余,将此事告诉了苏小妹。不料苏小妹却兜头给他泼了一瓢冷水,“这下你可输惨了”,苏小妹说。苏东坡不解,问:“此话怎讲?”苏小妹答:“心中有何事物就看到何事物,佛印心中有佛,所以看你就是佛;而你心中有污秽之物,你看到的自然就是牛粪。” There is a legend about a time Su Dongpo visited the Zen master Foyin. Both of them were on the rise‚ Su Dongpo suddenly put on Foyin’s Buddha cassock and asked: "what do you think I am?" Foyin answered: “Like a Buddha.”
