復舉:「乾峯和尚示眾:『法身有三種病、二種光,須是一一透得,始解穩坐。』雲門出眾云:『菴內人為甚麼不知庵外事?』乾峯呵呵大笑,雲門云:『猶是學人疑處。』峯云:『子是什麼心行?』門云:『也要和尚委悉。』峯云:『與麼始解穩坐。』」師拈云:「氈拍板、無孔笛,雖然韻出青霄,其奈音節失旨。會得,一夏容易得過;不然,來夜請首座為眾拈出。」

He also cited: "Upādhyāya Qianfeng instructed the assembly, saying: 'The Dharma-body has three kinds of sickness and two kinds of light; one must penetrate each and every one before one is able to sit securely.' Yunmen came out from the assembly and said, 'Why does the person inside the hermitage not know the affairs outside the hermitage?' Qianfeng laughed loudly: 'Ha, ha!' Yunmen said, 'This is still the student's place of doubt.' Feng said, 'What kind of mental activity do you have?' Men said, 'I also need the upādhyāya to understand thoroughly.' Feng said, 'Only thus are you able to sit securely.'" The master brought this up and said, "Felt clappers, a fluteless pipe—although their cadence reaches the azure skies, what can be done about their pitch losing the theme? If you understand, you will pass the single summer with ease; if not, tomorrow night I invite the head monk to bring it out for the assembly."
