雲門禪師圖贊 楊妹子
日本
雲門文偃為雲門宗之祖。馬遠所繪此圖即雲門大師，南宋（1127～1279）皇后楊妹子跋贊於圖上。文偃先於睦州道明禪師門下參學，後由道明推薦到雪峰座下，並嗣其法。由於雪峰禪師曾舉：「南山有一條鱉鼻蛇，汝等諸人，切須好看！」以示學人，勘辨迷悟，其中以鱉鼻蛇比喻自家本來面目。楊皇后即引此事，因文偃曾在韶陽地區弘法，故以「韶陽不畏」讚之。
現存楊皇后所書的三祖師跋贊中，雲門禪師圖贊書風最為緊結，外形雖有宋高宗（1127～1162在位）方正的樣態，但若從撇捺的樣式看來，多有從顏真卿書風來者，而此贊之氣力與精神和另二筆跋贊相較之下也最為充足。
參考釋文：南山深藏鼈鼻／出草長噴毒氣／擬議總須喪身／唯有韶陽不畏
