The Real Shobogenzo: You ruined it

Dahui's Real Original, the First Shobogenzo:   

A monk asked Fayan, “What is one drop of water from the wellspring of Chan?”  Fayan said, “It is one drop of water from the wellspring of Chan.” 

When National Teacher Yuan heard this, he had insight at these words.  Later, when he dwelt on Lotus Peak, he composed a verse saying,

The peak of penetrating mystery Is not in the human world; Outside mind there are no things.
Filling the eyes, green mountains.

When Fayan heard this verse, he said, “It just takes this one verse to naturally continue our school.”

Dahui said, “The extinction of Fayan’s school was just caused by this one verse.”
