虛堂和尚語錄 1.169

1.169

上堂，舉：「趙州問僧：『曾到此間麼？』僧云：『曾到。』州云：『喫茶去。』又問僧：『曾到麼？』僧云：『不曾到。』州云：『喫茶去。』」師云：「趙州一處打著，一處打不著。萬松見僧，亦不招茶，亦不相問。何故？自從賢聖法來，未甞殺生。」

Ascending the hall, [the Master] cited: "Zhaozhou asked a monk, 'Have you ever been here before?' The monk said, 'I have.' Zhaozhou said, 'Go drink tea.' He also asked [another] monk, 'Have you ever been here before?' The monk said, 'I have not.' Zhaozhou said, 'Go drink tea.'"
The Master said: "In one case Zhaozhou hit the mark; in the other he missed the mark. When Wansong sees a monk, he neither offers tea nor asks a question. Why? Ever since the Dharma of the sages and worthies arrived, I have never taken life."
