- The monk asked further, "Does he receive the ceremonial offerings?"

- Kokushi answered, "Make a seamless pagoda for this old monk."
- The emperor said, "I would like to ask you what style is it to be?"
- Kokushi remained silent for a while, and then he said, "Do you understand?"
- "No, I do not," said the emperor.
- "I have a disciple called Tangen," said Kokushi, "who had the dharma seal transmitted by me. He is well versed in this matter. Ask him, please."
- After Kokushi's death, the emperor sent for Tangen and asked him about it.
- Tangen said, "South of Sho and north of Tan, in between, gold abounds.
- The ferryboat under the shadowless tree, no holy one in the emerald palace you see."
- Question 1
