The master was sleeping in the hall. Huangbo came down, saw him, and struck the head of the sleeping platform once with his staff. The master raised his head, saw that it was Huangbo, and went back to sleep. Huangbo again struck the head of the sleeping platform once, then went to the upper hall, where he saw the head monk sitting in meditation. He said, "The junior in the lower hall is actually sitting in meditation; what are you doing here having false thoughts?" The head monk said, "What is this old fellow doing?" Huangbo struck the head of the sleeping platform once and left. Later, Guishan asked Yangshan, "What was Huangbo's meaning in entering the monks' hall?" Yangshan said, "Two winners in one game."
