2.134

One day he brought up: "Qianfeng instructed the assembly, saying: 'Presenting one, one must not present two; letting the first move pass, one falls into the second.' Great Master Yunmen stepped out of the assembly and said: 'Yesterday someone came from Tiantai, and went off to Nanyue.' Feng said: 'Tomorrow do not hold a communal work session.'" The Master said: "Venerable Chan practitioners! Old man Yunmen only knew how to lift up with one hand, but could not press down with the other. Is there anyone who joins in applying strength? Try baring your claws and teeth!"
