8.14

黑眼和尚。僧問。如何是不出世師。師云。善財拄杖子。問如何是佛法大意。師云。十年賣炭漢。不知秤畔星。

Upādhyāya Heiyan. A monk asked, "What is a master who does not appear in the world?" The Master said, "Sudhana's walking staff." [The monk] asked, "What is the great meaning of the Buddhadharma?" The Master said, "A charcoal seller of ten years does not know the dot on the steelyard beam."
