Pursuing the Patriarch, He Follows Him Straight to
Mount Song
Dharma Master Shen Guang raced after Patriarch
Bodhidharma. The Patriarch paid no attention to him but just kept on
walking. Dharma Master Shen Guang followed him all the way to Bear's
Ear Mountain, close to Mount Song, the Central Yo [sacred mountain],
near Luoyang. The Five Yo [sacred mountains] are Mount Tai (Peace) in
the east, Mount Heng (Authority) in the south, Mount Hua (Elegance) in
the west, Mount Heng (Constancy) in the north, and Mount Song
(Eminence) in the center.
