The Master asked a monk, "What are you doing?" The monk said, "Sweeping the ground." The Master said, "Do you sweep in front of the Buddha or behind the Buddha?" The monk said, "I sweep front and back at the same time." The Master said, "Bring Caoshan his slippers." (Wuzu Jie spoke on the monk's behalf, saying: "What frame of mind does the Venerable have?")
