乃云：「釋迦老子，雪山六年，功成行滿，到臘月八夜，討得一條路子，與後人行。若謂他見明星悟去，已是謗焰未息。」
He then said: "Old Śākyamuni spent six years on the snowy mountain; his cultivation completed and his practice fulfilled, on the night of the eighth day of the twelfth month he found a path for later people to walk. If it is said that he attained enlightenment upon seeing the morning star, the flame of slander has not yet been quenched."
