Dahui's Real Original, the First Shobogenzo, Vo. 2:
506 . Master Zhou of Guangde monastery in Rang province was asked by a monk, “I understand that there is a statement in the teachings that Aniruddha didn’t cut off afflictions and didn’t cultivate meditation concentration, and the Buddha predicted that this man would undoubtedly become a Buddha. What is the principle of this?” He said, “Salt all gone, and no charcoal either.”
The monk said, “How is it when the salt is all gone and there is no charcoal?” He said, “Sad man, don’t tell sad people; if you tell sad people, you’ll sadden them to death.”
Dahui said, “The ancient answering this way is called washing the feet and boarding the boat.”
