20.27

Congzhi, Great Master Xuanming of Jinfeng in Fuzhou, was asked by Sthavira Jin: "Who is the true master of Jinfeng?" The Master said: "From here to the garrison county is not far; do not act rashly, Ācārya." Jin said: "Why do you not speak?" The Master said: "My mouth is like a column base." [A monk] asked: "Among thousands and myriads of peaks, which is the Golden Peak (Jinfeng)?" The Master simply raised his hand to his forehead. [A monk] asked: "How is it when thousands of mountains are without clouds and ten thousand leagues are devoid of sunset glow?" The Master said: "On that side of Flying Ape Ridge, why not vomit it out violently?" [A monk] asked: "What is the meaning of the coming from the west?" The Master said: "Beside the wall there are rat ears." [A monk] asked: "What is the upādhyāya's house style?" The Master said: "In front of Jinfeng's gate, there is no five-li marker." Later, the Master resided at the Bao'en Cloister in Jinling and passed away there. He was given the posthumous title of Chan Master Yuanguang, and his stupa was named Guiji.
