### [2.149](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.2.149)

藥山看經次，僧問：「和尚尋常不許人看經，為什麼却自看？」山云：「我祇要遮眼。」云：「某甲學和尚得麼？」山云：「汝若看，牛皮也須穿。」

> While Yaoshan was reading a sūtra, a monk asked, "The Venerable usually does not permit people to read sūtras; why do you read them yourself?"  
> Yaoshan said, "I only want to shade my eyes."  
> He asked, "May I emulate the Venerable?"  
> Yaoshan said, "If you read it, even cowhide would surely be pierced through."
