When Huiji arrived Master Dongsi asked, “Where do you come from?”
Huiji replied, “I’m from Guangzhou.”
Dongsi said, “I’ve heard in Guangzhou they have a bright jewel that can pacify the ocean. Is that true?”
Huiji said, “Yes, it’s true.”
Dongsi asked, “How would you describe it?”
Huiji said, “In the white moon (waxing) it is hidden. In the black moon (waning) it appears.”
Dongsi asked, “Have you brought it here?”
Huiji said, “I brought it.”
Dongsi said, “Why don’t you show it to me?”
Huiji said, “Recently I visited Master Guishan and was asked for this jewel. I directly saw that there is no word with which to respond, and no truth that can be reported.”
Dongsi said, “A true lion’s child has a great lion’s roar.”
