When Chan Master Yi visited for instruction, the Master said, "Chan Master Yi, ordinary Chan masters these days give instruction before people's eyes and take things before people's eyes to help them. Do you still understand that which precedes any sign of pattern?" Yi said, "I intend to raise a question here to ask the Upādhyāya, but I do not know if it is permissible or not." The Master said, "I have already answered you; do not speak of permissible or not." Yi said, "Do you still recognize what is before your eyes, or not?" The Master said, "Since it is before your eyes, how can it be recognized?" Yi said, "In the end, you will suffer someone's scrutiny." The Master said, "Whose?" Yi said, "Mine." The Master immediately scolded him. Yi stepped back and stood there. The Master said, "You only know how to look forward; you do not know how to look back." Yi said, "Adding frost on top of snow." The Master said, "Neither of us has the upper hand." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.8.17) - [Next: 8.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.8.19) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076~en-mt.8.18) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.8.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.8.18) · Pramāṇa
