洪州上藍院守訥禪師。上堂謂眾曰。盡令提綱無人掃地。叢林兄弟相共證明。晚進之流有疑請問。有僧問。願開甘露門。當觀第一義。不落有無中。請師垂指示。師曰。大眾證明。曰恁麼即屈去也。師曰。閑言語。問如何是佛。師曰。更問阿誰。

> Chan Master Shoune of Shanglanyuan in Hongzhou ascended the hall and addressed the assembly, saying, "When the guidelines are fully upheld, there is no one left to sweep the floor. Let the brothers of the monasteries bear witness together. Let those of the younger generation who have doubts come forward and ask." A monk asked, "Wishing for the gate of sweet dew to be opened, one should contemplate the supreme truth, falling neither into existence nor nonexistence. We pray the Master will deign to provide guidance." The Master said, "Let the great assembly bear witness." The monk said, "If so, then I have been wronged." The Master said, "Idle words." He asked, "What is the Buddha?" The Master said, "Who else would you ask?"
