Ascending the hall, he said: "The northern wind creates a wintry hue; the beloved mouth streams forth gracious light. Everywhere meeting and encountering, clearly not concealed. Mountains and rivers have no separation; grasses and trees all proclaim it. Lands preach, sentient beings preach; Vairocana's tongue is broad and long. Chan worthies! The worlds of the ten directions, the mountains, rivers, the great earth, grasses, trees, and monastic groves are merely a single tongue of Vairocana. Do you all hear it? If you hear it here, it is still an affair within the gate of teaching and transformation. Tell me, without falling into the gate of transformation, how do you say a phrase?" After a long pause, he said: "Turning the body to approach the father, there is no target; taking off the flower crown, no name can be obtained."
