To Stop The Baby Crying

Reading: 

A monk asked Baso, "Why do you teach this "The mind is the Buddha?" 
Baso said, "To stop the baby crying." 
The monk asked, "And when the baby stops crying?" 
Baso said, "Mind is not the Buddha." 
The monk asked, "Besides this, is there something more?" 

 Baso replied, "I will tell you , it is not something."


Discussion:

Tell me, what was Baso's answer?
