22.31

Chan Master Wenqin of Baoci Monastery in Fuzhou. [A monk] asked, "What is the realm of all Buddhas?" The Master said, "When rain comes, clouds and mist darken; when it clears and dries, sun and moon are bright." [The monk] asked, "What is the luminous mind of wonderful enlightenment?" The Master said, "This winter's good late rice was born of and ripened by autumn rains." [The monk] asked, "What is the hearing mind of wonderful enlightenment?" The Master said, "Clouds arise from azure peaks; rain falls from the blue sky." [The monk] asked, "How does the ordinary mind accord with the Way?" The Master said, "Drink tea, eat rice, and pass the time as it comes; look at the water, look at the mountains—truly a delightful feeling."
