挂新鐘謝監收上堂：「千鈞之大器，已自陞樓，萬斛之璣珠，已自入廩。衲僧家，棒腹昇堂，開單展鉢，且道承誰恩力？」卓主丈：「不是少林客，難為話雪庭。」

> Ascending the hall upon hanging the new bell and thanking the supervisor of harvests: "A great vessel of a thousand jun has already mounted the tower; pearl-like grain of ten thousand hu has already entered the granary. Patch-robed monks, holding your bellies you ascend the hall, open the platforms and spread the bowls; tell me, whose grace and power do you rely upon?" Striking the staff, he said, "Unless one is a guest of Shaolin, it is difficult to speak of the snow-covered courtyard."
