1.29

Xuefeng came up to pay his respects. The Master said, "Having entered the gate, you must have something to say; you cannot say you have already entered." Xuefeng said, "I have no mouth." The Master said, "Setting aside having no mouth, return my eyes!" Xuefeng was speechless. (Yunju Ying gave an alternative response to the former words: "Wait until I have a mouth, then I will speak." Changqing Leng gave an alternative response: "In that case, I respectfully withdraw.")
