[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.'"
