風穴和尚、因僧問、語默渉離微、如何通不犯

Fengxue was asked by a Preceptor, “Speaking and staying silent both just end up wading around Sengzhao's principle, but how does one pass through without getting stuck?”

穴云、長憶江南三月裏、鷓鴣啼處百花香。

Fengxue replied, "Remember Jiangnan in Spring with its chirping pheasants and fragrant flowers."
