The monk asked, "What is the water buffalo?" The Master said, "Dim and indistinct." The monk said, "What is coming while holding a stalk of grass in its mouth?" The Master said, "An ancient has already said it: 'Fur and feathers resembling each other.'" He also said, "The single stalk of grass simply clarifies being unalterable."
