1.17

雲門問:「如何是沙門行?」師曰:「喫常住苗稼者是。」雲門云:「便恁麼去時如何?」師曰:「爾還畜得麼?」雲門云:「畜得。」師曰:「爾作麼生畜?」雲門云:「著衣喫飯,有甚麼難?」師曰:「何不道披毛戴角。」雲門便禮拜。

Yunmen asked, 'What is the practice of a śramaṇa?' The Master said, 'Eating the permanent property's crops is it.' Yunmen said, 'What about when one goes on just like that?' The Master said, 'Can you still rear [them]?' Yunmen said, 'I can rear [them].' The Master said, 'How do you rear [them]?' Yunmen said, 'Wearing clothes and eating food—what difficulty is there?' The Master said, 'Why don't you say: wearing fur and bearing horns?' Yunmen then made prostrations.
