2.324

師舉:「古人道:『讀經千遍,紙上見經不識。』忽然國師問,爾作麼生?」又云:「忽然國師拈起作麼生?」代前語云:「唵。」代後語云:「朝看《華嚴》,夜讀《般若》。」

The Master cited: "An ancient said: 'Reading the sūtras a thousand times, one sees the sūtras on the paper and does not recognise them.' If suddenly the National Teacher asks, what do you do?" He also said: "If suddenly the National Teacher holds it up, what do you do?" Answering on their behalf to the earlier words, he said: "Oṃ." Answering on their behalf to the later words, he said: "In the morning looking at the Avataṃsaka, at night reading the Prajñā."
