舉。雪峯因。鼓山來參。纔入門。峯搊住云。是甚麼。山契悟。舉手作舞云。子作道理耶。云。何道理之有。峯印之。

代鼓山云。和尚終不謾小子。

Master Kuzan came to see Master Seppo. The moment he entered the gate, Seppo grabbed him and said, "What is it?" Kuzan was enlightened. He raised his hands waving them about. Seppo said, "In what way did you come to understand?" Kuzan said, "What ways are there?" Seppo acknowledged Kuzan's enlightenment.

What’s at stake?

 

What makes up whatever the %$#& Gǔ​shān makes up? Then what makes that up?

And the what the %$#@ does Gǔ​shān do from this point?
And in what ways is Gǔ​shān any diffirent afterwords then before?
How is it lived?
