4.29

Citing Master Zhenxie entering the abbot's room, [the Master] ascended the hall and said: "Carrying robe and bowl over a hundred thousand leagues, he arrived, wishing to transmit and maintain in silence without a word. Selling his cotton sheet over four thousand leagues, he came, unable to do anything but laugh heartily. Hoeing weeds deceived Liangsui; shutting the gate pushed out Shaoyang. Some take it upon themselves relying on the correct command; some have a flash of insight thanks to a lateral hint. At Jingkou, re-interviewing Chuanzi, only then did he know how deep the kindness of teacher and friend is. At Linji, seeing Dayu again, only then did he believe how earnest the grandmotherly heart is. The past was thus, and the present is also like this." Stepping down from the seat, the great assembly went together to invite Master Zhenxie to enter the room for the assembly.
