Dahui did not have a particularly favorable view of Minsheng, and consequently held a deep prejudice against the entire Putuo Temple.
Therefore, no matter what Putuo Temple did, he felt they were just putting on an act—and a clumsy, sickening performance at that.
This feeling was actually quite normal. When you face someone you particularly dislike, every word and action of theirs looks like a clownish act in your eyes. If they perform well enough to be attractive, you will think they are merely pandering to the crowd for applause. When they act foolishly, you will treat them like an absolute idiot, and won't even bother to conceal the look of disgust on your face.
