He cited: "A monk asked Yunmen, 'What is the matter beyond the dharmakāya?' [Yunmen] said, 'To speak to you of what is beyond is not difficult, but how do you understand the dharmakāya?' The monk said, 'Please, upādhyāya, examine it.' [Yunmen] said, 'Setting aside examination, how do you understand the dharmakāya?' The monk said, 'Like this, like this?' [Yunmen] said, 'This is what you learned on the long continuous platform beds. Let me ask you: does the dharmakāya still eat food?' The monk had no words." The Master said, "About to complete a nine-fathom mountain, yet not adding the last basket of earth—where is the fault?"
