Annotated Painting - Dialogue with Master Fayan

法眼禪師圖贊 楊妹子
日本
法眼文益為法眼宗之祖，是禪宗五家中最晚成立者。馬遠所繪此圖即法眼大師，南宋（1127～1279）皇后楊妹子跋贊於圖上。楊皇后贊語所言：「大地山河自然，畢竟是同是別」，即引用法眼禪師與其師羅漢桂琛禪師的對話。楊皇后以為，若能知道「萬法唯心」，就不會執於空花水月、山河大地與自身是同是別了。
現存楊皇后所書的《雲門禪師圖贊》、《洞山渡水圖贊》及《法眼禪師圖贊》等三祖師跋贊中，《法眼禪師圖贊》書風稍多行書筆意，直行的行氣也較為順當，是其最為自然的作品。一九二二年指定為日本重要文化財。
楊妹子為南宋女畫家，寧宗（1194～1224在位）之皇后。會稽（今浙江紹興）人。工詩，善書畫，常於名畫上題跋，多用行書筆意。
參考釋文：大地山河自然／畢竟是同是別／若了萬法唯心／休認空花水月
