次日上堂：「百丈清規千古洪範，藏之則虛空絕跡，用之則綱令森嚴。徑山雖則義氣薄雲，爭柰未有僧堂施設。且今夏聖制，如何講明？」卓主丈云：「下座普同作禮，不到諸寮拜白。」

> The next day, ascending the hall: "Baizhang's pure regulations are a great model for a thousand ages: when hidden, empty space leaves no trace; when applied, the disciplinary orders are stern and austere. Although Mount Jing's spirit touches the clouds, what can be done about not yet having the communal hall facilities? How then should this summer's sacred retreat be explained?" He struck with the staff and said: "Coming down from the seat, all make prostrations together, without going around to the various huts to pay formal respects."
