舉：「踈山平日在香嚴，一日嚴上堂，有僧問：『不慕諸聖、不重己靈時如何？』嚴云：『萬機休罷，千聖不携。』疎山作嘔吐勢，嚴云：『師叔不肯那？』山云：『不得無過。』嚴云：『過在甚處？』山云：『萬機休罷，猶有物在，千聖不携，亦從人得。』嚴云：『師叔莫道得麼？』山云：『還我法座與爾道。』於是嚴令陞座，如前問之，山云：『何不道：肯諾不得全？』嚴云：『肯又肯箇什麼？諾又諾箇什麼？』山云：『肯則肯他諸聖，諾則諾於己靈。』香嚴云：『師叔恁麼道，也須倒屙三十年始得。』後住疎山，常病返胃。一日舉此問鏡清：『病僧肯諾不得全，道者作麼生會？』清云：『全歸肯諾。』山云：『不得全又作麼生？』清云：『箇中無肯路。』山云：『始契病僧意。』」

> \[Case\] brought up: When Shushan was at Xiangyan's place in ordinary times, one day Xiangyan ascended the hall, and a monk asked: "How is it when one does not admire the various sages and does not value one's own spirit?" Xiangyan said: "The myriad workings cease, and the thousand sages do not carry \[one\]." Shushan made a gesture of vomiting. Xiangyan said: "Do you not approve, Dharma-uncle?" Shushan said: "It cannot be without fault." Xiangyan said: "Where does the fault lie?" Shushan said: "'The myriad workings cease' still leaves something remaining; 'the thousand sages do not carry \[one\]' is also attained from others." Xiangyan said: "Could you say something, Dharma-uncle?" Shushan said: "Give me the Dharma seat, and I will speak for you." Thereupon Xiangyan had him ascend the seat, and asked him as before. Shushan said: "Why not say: 'Approbation and consent cannot be whole'?" Xiangyan said: "What is approved, and what is consented to?" Shushan said: "Approving is approving those various sages; consenting is consenting to one's own spirit." Xiangyan said: "For you to speak like this, Dharma-uncle, you must suffer diarrhea for thirty years before you get it." Later, while dwelling at Shushan, he was constantly afflicted with stomach reflux. One day he brought this up and asked Jingqing: "'This sick monk says approbation and consent cannot be whole'—how do you understand this, person of the Way?" Jingqing said: "Fully returning to approbation and consent." Shushan said: "What about 'cannot be whole'?" Jingqing said: "Herein there is no path of approbation." Shushan said: "Only now do you accord with this sick monk's intention."
