6.201

He cited: "One day, while Luoshan was attending Yantou walking in the mountains, he suddenly called out, 'Upādhyāya!' Yantou said, 'What is it?' Luoshan then stepped forward, bowed, and asked, 'Was it not that thirty years ago, while at Dongshan, Upādhyāya also did not approve of Dongshan?' Yantou said, 'It was.' Luoshan said, 'Was it not that while being a Dharma heir of Deshan, you also did not approve of Deshan?' Yantou said, 'It was.' Luoshan said, 'Not approving of Deshan I will not ask about; but as for Dongshan, what deficiency did he have?' After a long pause, Yantou said, 'Dongshan was a fine Buddha, but he simply had no radiance.' Luoshan then bowed."
