While Yaoshan was reading a sūtra, Boyan said, 'Venerable Sir, you should stop fooling people.' Yaoshan rolled up the sūtra and said, 'What time of day is it?' \[Boyan\] said, 'It is right at noon.' Yaoshan said, 'There is still this cultural pattern remaining.' \[Boyan\] said, 'I do not even have "nothing".' Yaoshan said, 'You are extraordinarily clever.' \[Boyan\] said, 'I am just like this; what is your honourable opinion, Venerable Sir?' Yaoshan said, 'I am limping and stumbling, with a hundred uglinesses and a thousand clumsinesses; I just pass the time like this.' Venerable Xian of Guanxi in his verse said, 'Shaking out the torn cassock worn for many years, / Ragged and frayed, half of it flies with the clouds. / Picking it up and draping it over my shoulders, / It is still better than contemporaries wearing brocade robes.' 'One hundred times unacceptable, / Completely and utterly useless'—among the assembly he is like 'a hundred clumsinesses', being a person of leisure all his life. 'Silently he knows his ground is secure; / Carefree and roaming, who would say his belly is simple-minded?' Wang Fanzhi wore his socks inside out; people all said it was a mistake: 'I would rather pierce your eyes / Than conceal my heels.' Wang Fanzhi was an extraordinary man; these words spread widely in the world. He can be called a leather lantern ball—bright inside, dark outside. The final line versifies: 'having fully inquired to the terrain of rotten antiques, rice grains cover even his eyebrows and eyelashes; one day bursting his scabby belly, the five viscera and internal organs are all vomited out.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2004.5.20) - [Next: 5.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2004.5.22) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2004.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2004~en-mt.5.21) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [宏智禪師廣錄](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.2.144) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2004.5.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2004.5.21) · Pramāṇa
