舉：「昔有僧，持鉢到長者家，偶為犬傷，長者云：『龍披一縷，金翅不吞，大德全披法服，為甚却被狗咬？』僧無語。」
He cited: "In the past, a monk carrying his bowl went to an elder's house and happened to be bitten by a dog. The elder said, 'When a dragon wears a single thread, the golden-winged bird does not swallow it; you, Great Worthy, fully wear the Dharma robes—why were you bitten by a dog instead?' The monk was speechless."
