He remarked to him, “Upādhyāya, you had better not deceive people.” Yaoshan set aside the scripture and said, “What time of day is it?” The master said, “It is right at noon.” Yaoshan said, “There is still literary embellishment remaining.” The master said, “I don't even have nothingness.” Yaoshan said, “Elder brother, you are exceedingly clever!” The master said, “I am just like this; what about the Upādhyāya?” Yaoshan said, “Hobbling and limping along, with a hundred uglinesses and a thousand clumsinesses, I just pass the time like this.” > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.7.7) - [Next: 7.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.7.9) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076~en-mt.7.8) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.7.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.7.8) · Pramāṇa
