萬松老人評唱天童覺和尚頌古從容庵錄 5.12

舉。僧問夾山。撥塵見佛時如何（何必）。山云。直須揮劍（果然）。若不揮劍漁父棲巢（坐則非佛）。僧舉。問石霜。撥塵見佛時如何（見即不撥撥即不見）霜云渠無國土。何處逢渠（不坐即佛）僧迴舉似夾山（往來不易）山上堂云。門庭施設不如老僧。入理深談猶較石霜百步（各得一橛）。

> Case: A monk asked Jiashan: "When sweeping away dust to see the Buddha, how is it? (What need is there?)" Shan said: "You must brandish the sword directly! (Just so.) If you do not brandish the sword, the fisherman roosts in a nest. (Sitting, then one is not the Buddha.)" The monk raised this and asked Shishuang: "When sweeping away dust to see the Buddha, how is it? (Seeing, one does not sweep; sweeping, one does not see.)" Shuang said: "He has no realm; where will you meet him? (Not sitting, then one is the Buddha.)" The monk returned and raised this to Jiashan. (Back and forth is not easy.) Shan entered the hall and said: "For household arrangements, he is not as good as this old monk; for profound discourse entering principle, I am still a hundred paces behind Shishuang. (Each got a piece.)"
