 Sesshin sessho Notes
Commentators often parse this binome as "the master's (i.e., Liangjie's) elder brother" and treat it as an honorific among Dongshan's followers; this interpretation may work for Dôgen's use in this line, but it hardly fits with Liangjie's own use in the next line.
Dôgen here begins a line-by-line Japanese translation and comment on the Dongshan story with which he opened this piece.
Some would interpret nari here to be an oblique reference to the "teaching of the mind and teaching of the nature" that is "over there," beyond a conventional meaning.

I was reminded of the title of an article I once planned to write, half as a joke, but half seriously: 'Three pounds of flax: Deafness as a contributory factor in the enigmatic responses of elderly Zen masters in traditional stories used as koans.'
Personally I think Dongshan was hearing better that day a monk asked him 'What is Buddha?' and he answered with no messing around: 'The clear crystal truth.' But what answer has taxed the minds of Zen students for centuries?
Well of course it had to be that time when there was a noisy hustle and bustle in the monastery while Dongshan was weighing flax.
