27.74

法眼和尚因患脚。僧問訊次師曰。非人來時不能動。及至人來動不得。且道佛法中下得什麼語。僧曰。和尚且喜得較。師不肯(自別云。和尚今日似減)。

Upādhyāya Fayan, on account of an ailment in his feet, was visited by a monk inquiring after his health. The Master said, "When it is not a person who comes, I cannot move; when a person arrives, I cannot move. Tell me: what words can be applied within the Buddha Dharma?" The monk said, "The upādhyāya may take joy that it has improved." The Master did not accept this. (He spoke alternatively: "The upādhyāya seems to have improved today.")
