法演禪師語錄 2.39

2.39

Ascending the hall, he cited: "A monk asked Yunmen, 'What is the talk that transcends Buddhas and surpasses patriarchs?' Men said, 'Sesame cake.' Baiyun is not like this. If someone suddenly asks, 'What is the talk that transcends Buddhas and surpasses patriarchs?' I would only say to him, 'Donkey dung is like horse manure.' Also I would say, 'A worn-out straw sandal.' Also I would say, 'The sacred tortoise drags its tail.' And tell me: are these the same or different? Try to distinguish them!"
