舉：「溈山山下有一僧住庵，仰山到彼，舉溈山示眾道：『如許多人，只得大機，不得大用，只如山中和尚與麼，道意作麼生？』僧云：『更請舉看。』仰山復舉，被僧闌胸一蹈，仰歸舉似溈山，山呵呵大笑。」

> He cited: "At the foot of Mount Gui, a monk lived in a hermitage. Yangshan went there and cited Guishan's instruction to the assembly: 'So many people have only obtained the great capacity, but have not obtained the great functioning; what is the meaning of the upādhyāya in the mountains speaking like this?' The monk said, 'Please cite it again.' When Yangshan cited it again, he was kicked in the chest by the monk. Yangshan returned and cited this to Guishan; Guishan laughed heartily, ha-ha!"
