乃舉:「仰山參東寺,纔跨門,寺云:『已相見了,不用上來。』仰云:『與麼相見,莫不得麼?』寺便歸方丈,閉却門。仰山歸,舉似溈山,溈云:『子是甚麼心行?』仰云:『若不與麼,爭識得伊。』」師云:「東寺便歸方丈,千古楷模;仰山舉似溈山,因邪打正。」
He then cited: "Yangshan called on Dongsi. As soon as he stepped over the threshold, Dongsi said: 'We have already met; no need to come up.' Yangshan said: 'Meeting like this—can it not be permitted?' Dongsi then returned to the abbot's quarters and shut the door. When Yangshan returned, he recounted this to Guishan. Guishan said: 'What was your intention in acting like that?' Yangshan said: 'If not for that, how could I have recognized him?'" The master said, "Dongsi's returning straight to the abbot's quarters is an exemplar for a thousand ages; Yangshan's recounting it to Guishan struck the straight by way of the crooked."
