Instructing the assembly on the Lantern Festival, he said: "At midnight, who transmitted the inexhaustible lamp? At Huangmei's seat, it was granted to Lu Neng. Empty brightness shines of itself, not by mental effort; it is entrusted to the monk in the monastic grove who has settled the affair. There are Buddha realms where light is made the Buddha's work; today Puzhao also acts like this. Do you understand? / The lamps connect like phoenix wings, illuminating the front of the hall; / The moon stamps delicate brows—turn your face and look."
