上堂，舉：「洞山因僧問：『寒暑到來，如何回避？』山云：『何不向無寒暑處去？』僧云：『如何是無寒暑處？』山云：『寒時寒殺闍梨，熱時熱殺闍梨。』」師云：「當時者僧且冷笑一聲，管取洞山隱身無路。」

> Ascending the hall, he cited: "Dongshan was asked by a monk, 'When cold and heat arrive, how should one avoid them?' Shan said, 'Why not go to the place where there is no cold or heat?' The monk said, 'What is the place where there is no cold or heat?' Shan said, 'When it is cold, it freezes the Ācārya to death; when it is hot, it scorches the Ācārya to death.'" The Master said, "If that monk at that time had only let out a cold laugh, he would have made sure that Dongshan had nowhere to hide his body."
