Joshu's "Deluded"

A monk asked:

"The ten thousand things arise together, then is there anyone who is not deluded by them?"

The master said:

"There is."

The monk said:

"What is he who is not deluded?"

The master said:

"Do you believe that there is a Buddha-Dharma or not?"

The monk said:

"I believe there is a Buddha-Dharma, the ancients have said so. What is he who is not deluded?"

The master said:

"Why don't you ask me?"

The monk said:

"I did ask."

The master said:

"Deluded."


How do you even go about responding to such an accusation? Who is deluded? Who isn't deluded?
