居士一日坐次，問靈照曰：「古人道：『明明百草頭，明明祖師意。』如何會？」照曰：「老老大大，作這箇語話。」士曰：「你作麼生？」照曰：「明明百草頭，明明祖師意。」士乃笑。
One day Layman Pang was sitting. He said to his daughter Lingzhao, "There's an old line: 'Clear and bright, the tips of the hundred grasses; clear and bright, the meaning of the founding teachers.' How do you read it?"
Lingzhao said, "A grown man, and you still talk this way?"
"Then how would you put it?" he asked.
She said, "Clear and bright, the tips of the hundred grasses; clear and bright, the meaning of the founding teachers."
The Layman laughed.
