- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [3.44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.3.44)

上堂，謝秉拂夏齋：「一稱南無佛，皆已成佛道。若說到金輪水際、崑崙山椒，功歸何所？」擊拂子：「吽吽，有甚饆饠䭔子，快下將來。」

> Ascending the hall, giving thanks for the summer feast of wielding the whisk: "'If with a single utterance one calls "Homage to the Buddha," / All have already attained the Buddha Path.' If spoken of reaching the water's edge of the golden wheel or the peak of the Kunlun Mountains, where does the merit return?" Striking with his whisk: "Hūṃ, hūṃ! Whatever pastries or dumplings you have, bring them down quickly!"
