景德傳燈錄 8.29

8.29

One day Upādhyāya Bailing met Upāsaka Pang on the road. The master asked, "Have you ever cited to anyone the line where you gained realization on Nanyue in the past?" The upāsaka said, "I have cited it." The master said, "To whom did you cite it?" The upāsaka pointed to himself with his hand and said, "Old Pang." The master said, "Even Mañjuśrī and Subhūti would praise you as surpassing them!" The upāsaka in turn asked, "Who knows the master's line of power?" The master simply put on his bamboo hat and walked away. The upāsaka said, "Take good care on your journey!" The master walked on and never once looked back.
