Where did Nanquan go after passing away?" > Changsha said, "Have him ponder it." > Xiu said, "Though the Venerable has a thousand-foot cold pine, you have no bamboo shoots sprouting from the stones." > Changsha did not answer. Xiu said, "Thank you, Master, for answering my words." > Changsha also did not answer. Xiu related this to Sansheng. Sansheng said, "If it is truly like this, it still surpasses Linji by seven paces. Even though it is so, wait until I test him further." > When the next day came, Sansheng asked, "I have heard that the Venerable's answer yesterday to the phrase about Nanquan's passing away could be called outshining the past and surpassing the future, rarely heard of from ancient times to the present." > Changsha also did not answer. Sansheng said, "I have always suspected this fellow." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.164](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.2.164) - [Next: 2.166](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.2.166) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992~en-mt.2.165) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [萬松老人評唱天童覺和尚頌古從容庵錄](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2004.5.81) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.2.165](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.2.165) · Pramāṇa
