17.13

Chan Master Daoyou of Youqi in Taizhou. Jingqing asked, “What is the young father?” The Master said, “No target.” Jingqing said, “With no target, do you take that to be the young father?” The Master said, “What fault is there?” Jingqing said, “Just as it is, what is the young father like?” The Master said, “Practitioner, what kind of mental activity is that?” A monk asked, “What is the Buddha?” The Master said, “You do not believe that you are a sentient being.” The monk said, “Your student has great faith.” The Master said, “If you form a notion of superiority, you will receive all kinds of demons.” When the Master was about to demonstrate extinction, a monk asked, “After a hundred years, where will the Upādhyāya go?” The Master said, “Far, far away; far, far away.” Having spoken, he passed away sitting upright.
