5.181

Upādhyāya Baoning Yong instructed the assembly: "Old Śākya expounded the Dharma for forty-nine years, yet never spoke a single word. Upagupta filled his abbot's room with tallies, yet never delivered a single person. Bodhidharma did not dwell at Shaoshi; the Sixth Patriarch did not abide at Caoxi. Who are the descendants? Who are the foremost awakened?"
