### [8.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.8.37)

古寺和尚。丹霞參師經宿至明。旦煮粥熟。行者只盛一鉢與師。又盛一碗自喫。殊不顧丹霞。丹霞即自盛粥喫行者云。五更侵早起。更有夜行人。丹霞問師。何不教訓行者。得恁麼無禮。師云。淨地上不要點污人家男女。丹霞云。幾不問過遮老漢。

> Upādhyāya Gusi: Danxia visited the master and stayed overnight until dawn. When the morning porridge was cooked, the postulant served only one bowl to the master and filled another bowl to eat himself, paying no attention to Danxia. Danxia then helped himself to porridge and ate it. The postulant said, "Rising early before the fifth watch, there are still travelers in the night." Danxia asked the master, "Why don't you instruct your postulant? How can he be so discourteous?" The master said, "On clean ground, do not defile the sons and daughters of decent families." Danxia said, "I almost failed to interrogate this old fellow!"
