Nanquan asked: 'In what year did the elder practice the Way?' Huangbo said: 'Prior to King of Majestic Voice (Bhīṣmagarjitasvararāja).' Nanquan said: 'You are still the grandson of Old Teacher Wang! Get down!' Huangbo then got up and left." The Master said: "What a pity that Old Teacher Wang only saw the sharpness of an awl's point! If I had been Nanquan at that time, waiting until he said 'Prior to King of Majestic Voice,' I would immediately have sat in the second place, causing Huangbo to be unable to get up for his whole life. Even though it is so, one must also rescue Nanquan." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.85](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.2.85) - [Next: 2.87](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.2.87) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996~en-mt.2.86) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.2.86](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.2.86) · Pramāṇa
