僧問：「親何道伴即得常聞於未聞？」師曰：「同共一被蓋。」僧云：「此猶是和尚得聞，如何是常聞于未聞？」師曰：「不同于木石。」僧云：「何者在先？何者在後？」師曰：「不見道：常聞于未聞。」

> A monk asked, "Associating closely with what kind of companion of the Way enables one constantly to hear what has not yet been heard?"  
> The Master said, "Sharing the very same blanket."  
> The monk said, "This is still what the Master gets to hear; what is it constantly to hear what has not yet been heard?"  
> The Master said, "Not being the same as wood and stone."  
> The monk said, "Which comes first, and which comes after?"  
> The Master said, "Haven't you heard it said: 'Constantly hearing what has not yet been heard'?"
