瑞州洞山良价禪師語錄 1.43

1.43

The Master said to Yunju, "Formerly, Nanquan asked a monk lecturing on the Maitreya Descent Sūtra, 'When will Maitreya descend to be born?' The monk said, 'Presently he is in the heavenly palace; in the future he will descend to be born.' Nanquan said, 'In heaven there is no Maitreya, and on earth there is no Maitreya.'" Yunju then brought this up and asked, "Just as in heaven there is no Maitreya and on earth there is no Maitreya, I wonder: who gave him a name?" When asked this, the Master's meditation seat trembled. He then said, "Ācārya Ying! When I was at Yunyan, I once questioned the old man so that the brazier trembled; today, questioned by you, sweat pours over my entire body."
