俱胝和尚凡有詰問唯舉一指，後有童子，因外人問：「和尚說何法要？」童子亦竪起一指，胝聞遂以刃斷其指，童子負痛號哭而去，胝復召之，童子回首，胝却竪起指，童子忽然領悟。胝將順世，謂眾曰：「吾得天龍一指頭禪，一生用不盡。」言訖而寂。師曰：「俱胝承當處莽鹵，只認得一機一境。」

Whenever Master Juzhi was questioned, he would only raise one finger. Later there was a boy attendant. When an outsider asked, "What essential Dharma does the Venerable Monk teach?" the boy also held up a finger. When Zhi heard of this, he severed the boy's finger with a blade. Bearing the pain, the boy ran away wailing. Zhi called to him again. The boy turned his head, and Zhi then held up his finger; the boy suddenly had an awakening. When Zhi was about to pass away, he said to the assembly, "I attained Tianlong's one-finger Chan and have not exhausted its use in an entire lifetime." Having spoken, he passed away. The Master said, "Juzhi's undertaking was crude and careless; he only recognized one dynamic and one objective realm."
