A monk asked, "What is the Buddha?" The master said, "Holding a post and splashing water." \[The monk\] asked, "What is the Dharma?" The master said, "Pellets of yellow mud." \[The monk\] asked, "What is the Saṅgha?" The master said, "Shaving off the beard and hair." \[The monk\] asked, "Apart from the Three Jewels, is there still any other place for helping people?" The master held up a single finger. The monk said, "I do not understand." The master said, "When the finger points, only view the moon; / When the wind comes, the banner does not move." Ascending the hall, \[the master said\], "Deshan's blow of the stick, Linji's shout: / All are wavelets overlapping without wind. / The lantern jumps over the blue sky; / The open pillar's soul is terrified and its head splits. / Even though it is thus, it is very much like eating salt to add to thirst." He gave a shout. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 17.44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.17.44) - [Next: 17.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.17.46) - [Up: 17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.17) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077~en-mt.17.45) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.17.45](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.17.45) · Pramāṇa
