Layman Pang: Only You, Mazu

Green's Sayings of Layman Pang:

At another time, the Layman asked Mazu, "If you met someone who was a distinctly authentic person, how would you recognize him?"

Mazu directed his gaze downward.

The Layman said, "Only you are able to play a tune on the stringless harp."

Mazu looked up and the Layman bowed. Mazu then returned to his rooms. The Layman followed him, saying, "Just now I tried to trick you, but you made a fool of me."

.

ewk ? note: Why is this a Case? What sort of doctrine can anybody make out of this? How to "practice" it?
