金陵清涼院文益禪師語錄 1.74

1.74

百丈道恒參師，因請益外道問佛：「不問有言，不問無言。」敘語未終，師云：「住住，汝擬向世尊良久處會那？」百丈從此悟入。

Baizhang Daoheng visited the Master for instruction. He asked about the non-Buddhist asking the Buddha: "I do not ask about the spoken; I do not ask about the unspoken." Before he had finished speaking, the Master said, "Stop, stop! Do you intend to understand from the World-Honoured One's remaining silent for a long time?" Baizhang was enlightened from this.
