### [3.33](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.3.33)

舉：「國師三喚侍者，點即不到。侍者三應，到即不點。將謂吾辜負汝，誰知汝辜負吾，瞞雪竇不得。雲門道：『作麼生是國師辜負侍者處？』會得也是無端。」師云：「元來不會，作麼生是侍者辜負國師？粉骨碎身未報得。」師云：「無端無端。」

> He cited: "The National Teacher called his attendant three times—where pointed to, he did not reach. The attendant answered three times—reaching it, he did not point. 'I thought I had failed you, but who knew you failed me?' You cannot fool Xuedou. Yunmen said, 'How did the National Teacher fail the attendant?' Understanding it is also groundless." The Master said, "It turns out he did not understand! How did the attendant fail the National Teacher? 'Though my bones be powdered and my body smashed, I could not repay it.'" The Master said, "Groundless, groundless!"
