法演禪師語錄 1.22

1.22

Ascending the hall, [the Master] cited: "In the teachings it says: 'If one says that the Tathāgata has preached any Dharma, one slanders the Buddha.' But as for the great canon of teachings, where does it come from? If one says there was no preaching, where can the five thousand and forty-eight rolls be disposed of? When reaching here, one must be the right person before one can manage it. Do you understand? It would be best not to slander Simian."
