Dahui's Real Original, the First Shobogenzo:
238. Master Jinfeng said to an assembly, “Twenty years ago I had an indulgent heart; twenty years later I have no indulgent heart.” A monk asked, “How was it having an indulgent heart twenty years ago?”
[Jinfeng] said, “When asked about the ordinary, I answered about the ordinary; when asked about the holy, I answered about the holy.” The monk said, “How is it having no indulgent heart twenty years later?”
[Jinfeng] said, “When asked about the ordinary, I don’t answer about the ordinary; when asked about the holy, I don’t answer about the holy.”
