Treasury of the Eye of True Teaching: Case 54

Once master Dongshan Cong was carrying a load of firewood up the mountain by himself when he encountered a monk on the way. The monk asked, "There's firewood on the mountain—why carry it up?"

Cong put the load of firewood down on the ground and said, "Understand?"

The monk said, "No."

Cong said, "I want to burn it."

...

Dongshan getting some exorcise. What does this have to do with enlightenment?
