### [4.77](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.4.77)

上堂舉僧問趙州。萬法歸一。一歸何處。州云。我在青州。作一領布衫重七斤。又僧問文殊。萬法歸一。一歸何處。殊云。黃河九曲。師云。黃河九曲。七斤布衫。胡馬嘶北。越鳥巢南。衲僧恰到真常處。語不欺人面不慚。

> Ascending the hall, \[the Master\] cited: A monk asked Zhaozhou, "The ten thousand phenomena return to the one; where does the one return?" Zhou said, "When I was in Qingzhou, I made a cloth robe weighing seven pounds." Another monk asked Mañjuśrī, "The ten thousand phenomena return to the one; where does the one return?" Mañjuśrī said, "The Yellow River bends nine times." The Master said: The Yellow River bends nine times; a seven-pound cloth robe. The northern horse neighs toward the north; the southern bird nests in the south. When a patch-robed monk arrives precisely at the true and constant place, his words do not deceive people and his face feels no shame.
