22.32

Chan Master Zihua, Qingyun of Wan'an Monastery in Quanzhou. A monk asked, "One branch from Longxi, dividing the lamp at the Jin River. As Wan'an presides over the assembly, how do you instruct?" The Master said, "How will you square it?" The monk said, "I do not know whether the Master permits it or not." The Master said, "What else would you do?" The monk said, "The secret intent of Longxi in the past is proclaimed today at Wan'an. Humans and devas listen intently; we pray you condescend to expound it." The Master said, "Do you still hear it?" The monk said, "If that is so, then the five groups have already received the Master's precise pointing; it is no different from the opening of the ten eyes east of the city." The Master said, "Setting aside the five groups, what about the benevolent one?" [A monk] asked, "Having long dwelt in darkness, my whole body does not understand; I beg the Master for instruction." The Master said, "Did I wrong your question?" [The monk] said, "If that is so, I make obeisance and follow the assembly up and down. Does the Master still permit it?" The Master said, "In a quiet place: svāhā." [A monk] asked, "When all Buddhas appear in the world, heaven and earth are shaken. How is it when the upādhyāya appears in the world?" The Master said, "I speak thus to you." The monk said, "If that is so, then it is no different from all the sages." The Master said, "Do not speak wildly." [A monk] asked, "What is the house style of Wan'an?" The Master said, "Moss broth, granary rice." The monk said, "If an honored guest suddenly arrives, how will you entertain him?" The Master said, "Three rounds of tea after the meal." [The monk] asked, "What is the environment of Wan'an?" The Master said, "A single pagoda among pine vines, gazing clearly over the sea."
