鎮州臨濟慧照禪師語錄 1.64

1.64

One day, while sitting around the hearth in the monks' hall together with the elder of Heyang Muta, the Master remarked, "Every day Puhua acts crazy and mad in the streets. Who knows whether he is an ordinary person or a sage?" Before he had finished speaking, Puhua walked in. The Master asked him, "Are you an ordinary person or a sage?" Puhua said, "You tell me: am I an ordinary person or a sage?" The Master gave a shout. Puhua pointed with his finger and said, "A bride of Heyang, the old woman's Chan of Muta, and the little brat of Linji—yet he possesses an eye!" The Master said, "This thief!" Puhua said, "Thief! Thief!" and walked out.
