舉：「南泉參百丈涅槃和尚，丈問：『從上諸聖還有不為人說底法麼？』泉云：『有。』丈云：『作麼生是不為人說底法？』泉云：『不是心，不是佛，不是物。』丈云：『說了也。』泉云：『普願只恁麼，未審和尚如何？』丈云：『我又不是善知識，爭知有說不說。』泉云：『普願不會。』丈云：『我太殺為爾說了也。』」

He cited: "Nanquan called upon Baizhang Niepan. Baizhang asked, 'Is there still a Dharma from all the sages of the past that has not been spoken for people?' Nanquan said, 'There is.' Baizhang said, 'What is the Dharma that has not been spoken for people?' Nanquan said, 'It is not mind, it is not buddha, it is not a thing.' Baizhang said, 'You have spoken it!' Nanquan said, 'I, Puyan, am just thus. What about you, Venerable Sir?' Baizhang said, 'I am not a kalyāṇamitra; how should I know whether there is speaking or no speaking?' Nanquan said, 'I do not understand.' Baizhang said, 'I have spoken it for you all too thoroughly!'"
