Ascending the hall, he instructed the assembly, saying: "Stepping outside the door of the monks' hall, one sees the Five Old Men Peaks; the lifelong matter of study and investigation is finished. What need is there to come here again? Even so, it has troubled you sthaviras to make a turn. There is nothing to do; take care." A monk asked, "It is not the wind moving, nor is it the banner moving; I wonder, what was the ancient's intention?" The master said, "Let the great assembly understand it all at once." Another time, he ascended the hall, and a monk intended to ask a question. The master then pointed at the monk and said, "Stop! Stop!" The monk stepped forward and asked, "Please proclaim the ancestral vehicle that has come down from above, Master." The master said, "The former words do not hold together; the later words are hard to pursue." The monk said, "I wonder, how is the matter of today?" The master said, "You do not understand human speech." A monk asked, "What is the great meaning of the Buddha Dharma?" The master said, "Good." A monk asked, "What is the realm of Qixian?" The master said, "Entering the three gates, you should immediately know." A monk asked, "What is the meaning of the Ancestral Master's coming from the West?" The master said, "Here, there is a lack." A monk asked, "The ancestral lamp shines again; without begrudging compassion, please lower yourself further for those of medium and lower faculties." The master said, "Do you understand?" The monk said, "If so, then the gate of skillful means is already open." The master said, "Also a deception." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 25.34](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.25.34) - [Next: 25.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.25.36) - [Up: 25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.25) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076~en-mt.25.35) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.25.35](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.25.35) · Pramāṇa
