man: What kind of person practises the Tao?
Zhaozhou: Someone just like me.
man: Master, you have to practise Tao too?
Zhaozhou: Practising the Tao concerns changing one's clothing ... and eating.
man: These are but mundane tasks. What kind of mind study can be considered practice of Zen?
Zhaozhou: What do you think I do everyday?
commentary：
Practice of Zen comes from everyday conversation, washing your face, eating and that sort of things. One must do them with full awareness. Perception into the nature of things comes from doing such things wholeheartedly.
有客来问赵州禅师如何修行。
客人： 修道的人是什么样的人呢？
赵州： 就像我。
客人： 大师也要修行吗？
赵州： 修行无外乎穿衣。。。 吃饭。
客人： 这是日常琐碎的事情，究竟什么叫修行呢？
赵州： 你以为我每天在做什么呢？
评注：
修行即指从寒暄、洗脸、吃饭等细节，都要诚心诚意，每日奉行，诚意地完成每一件事，而使之与真理产生共鸣。
