Case: 迦葉、因阿難問云、世尊傳金襴袈裟外、別傳何物。 Ananda asked Kashyapa, "The World-honored One gave you the golden robe; did he give you anything else?"
葉喚云、阿難。 "Ananda!" cried Kashyapa.
難、應諾。 "Yes, sir!" answered Ananda.
葉云、倒却門前刹竿著。 "Knock down the flagpole at the gate," said Kashyapa.
Explanation: Amanda is asking by what signs can we recognize the Buddha dharma. Kashyapa's calling proves and Ananda's expansive karmic consciousness, without a foundation, as he responds immediately. This is the family secret, the ability to observe causes and conditions.
Knocking down the flag pole is unattaching to any form you would believe to represent the Buddha's dharma.
The end. Thank you for your times. I will do a QnA.
