1.11
On the grand memorial anniversary of the Venerable Yuanwu, offering incense and pointing at the portrait, he said: "This Sichuan rustic originally loved to stir up a crowd; wherever it was noisy he stuck his head in, loathing quiet and delighting in movement. The year before last on this day he first returned home; today, the year before last, the road has not diverged." Thereupon he looked around and indicated to the assembly, saying: "What is the road that has not diverged? Do you want to understand? Every time you drink water you choke; a flake of sandalwood incense, a bowl of tea." Then he burned the incense.
