上堂，舉：「溈山因摘茶次，謂仰山曰：『終日摘茶，只聞子聲，不見子形。』仰撼茶樹，溈云：『子只得其用，不得其體。』仰云：『未審和尚如何？』溈良久，仰云：『和尚只得其體，不得其用。』溈云：『放子二十棒。』」拈云：「溈山恐仰山不在，時時管帶，仰山子承父業，豈敢妄為。若是體用互換，放過杖子，總是第二月。」

> Ascending the hall, he cited: "Guishan, while picking tea, said to Yangshan, 'All day picking tea, I only hear your voice, but do not see your form.' Yang shook the tea tree. Guishan said, 'You have only attained its function, not attained its essence.' Yang said, 'I wonder, how is it with the upādhyāya?' Guishan remained silent for a long time. Yang said, 'The upādhyāya has only attained its essence, not attained its function.' Guishan said, 'I spare you twenty blows of the stick.'" The master brought this up and said, "Guishan feared Yangshan would not be present, so he took care of him at all times; Yangshan, inheriting the father's business, how would he dare act recklessly? If it comes to essence and function interchanging and letting go of the staff, it is altogether the second moon."
