祖師問難　講經為何

神光法師講完了經，想不到這印度人就來問他問題了，說：「法師！你在這兒幹什麼？」

神光法師說：「咦！我在這兒講經，你還不懂嗎？我以為你是來聽我講經的，原來你連講經都不懂啊！」

達摩祖師說：「你講經幹什麼？為什麼要講經？」

The Patriarch Asks Him, 
"Why Are You Explaining Sutras?"

After he finished his Sutra lecture, he was surprised when the Indian began to question him. The Patriarch asked, "Dharma Master, what are you doing?"

Dharma Master Shen Guang replied, "I am lecturing on the Sutras. You don't even know that? I thought you came to listen to the explanation of the Sutra, but it turns out you don't even know what a Sutra lecture is all about!"

Patriarch Bodhidharma asked, "Hmm. What are you doing when you lecture on the Sutras? Why explain Sutras?"
