Yunmen said: 'Assembly, step back!' The monk said: 'Where is the fault?' Yunmen said: 'Give me back the cost of ninety days' meals!'" The Master said: "This monk was greedy to gaze at white waves; Yunmen acted seeing the dynamic. Although he cut through iron and severed nails, it was not yet the fundamental lot's forage. Were someone to ask Chongning, I would only answer him: 'Before the donkey business is finished, the horse business arrives.' Wait for him to do whatever, and strike him right across the back with the staff." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 16.30](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.16.30) - [Next: 16.32](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.16.32) - [Up: 16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.16) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997~en-mt.16.31) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.16.31](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.16.31) · Pramāṇa
