He was ordained at Huadu Monastery and went to rely on Letan. When he entered the abbot's room, Letan asked, "How much does the iron ox of Shan prefecture weigh?" The master clasped his hands, stepped forward, and said, "Now tell me, how much does it weigh?" Letan said, "Its tail is north of the Yellow River; / Its head rests south of the Yellow River. / Sudhana has no nostrils, / As before he travels south to practice." The master hesitated. Letan struck him at once, and suddenly he thoroughly penetrated. He served as an attendant for years, and eventually lived in seclusion among the forests and ravines. He once composed a verse, saying: "Fearing the cold, I am too lazy to shave my disheveled hair; / Loving warmth, I frequently add wood chips to the fire. / The tattered saṅghāṭī robe is draped in disarray; / Who would take the trouble to force an arrangement?" > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 25.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.25.26) - [Next: 25.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.25.28) - [Up: 25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.25) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077~en-mt.25.27) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.25.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.25.27) · Pramāṇa
