17.28

舉:「僧問趙州:『萬法歸一,一歸何處?』州云:『我在青州作一領布衫,重七斤。』」師拈云:「摩醯三眼,一句洞明,似海朝宗,千途共轍。雖然如是,更有一著在。忽有問蔣山:『萬法歸一,一歸何處?』只對他道:『饑來喫飯困來眠。』」

[The Master] cited: "A monk asked Zhaozhou: 'The ten thousand dharmas return to the one; where does the one return?' Zhaozhou said: 'When I was in Qingzhou, I had a cloth robe made; it weighed seven jin.'"
The Master critiqued: "With the three eyes of Maheśvara, a single phrase penetrates clearly; like the sea to which all streams pay homage, a thousand paths share the same rut. Even though this is so, there is still another move. Were someone suddenly to ask Jiangshan, 'The ten thousand dharmas return to the one; where does the one return?', I would simply answer him: 'When hungry, eat rice; when tired, sleep.'"
