He cited: "A monk asked Zhaozhou, 'I have newly entered the monastery; I beg the master for instruction.' Zhou said, 'Have you eaten your porridge yet?' The monk said, 'I have eaten my porridge.' Zhou said, 'Go wash your bowl.'" The Master said, "Tell me: was there instruction or was there no instruction? If you say there was instruction, what did he say to him? If you say there was no instruction, how did this monk attain awakening?"
