[Yuanwu] brought up [the case]: "Qianfeng addressed the assembly, saying, 'The dharmakāya has three kinds of diseases and two kinds of light. One must penetrate through each and every one before one understands how to sit securely. Even though it is like this, one must further know that there is the transcendent aperture where illumination and function occur simultaneously before one will get it.' Yunmen came forth from the assembly and asked, 'What about the person inside the hermitage: why does he not see things outside the hermitage?' Qianfeng laughed loudly: 'Ha, ha!' Yunmen said, 'This is still the student's place of doubt.' Qianfeng said, 'What kind of mindset do you have?' Yunmen said, 'I also want the Venerable Sir to understand thoroughly.' Qianfeng said, 'Only by being just like this does one understand how to sit securely.'"
