Students of today get nowhere because they
base their understanding upon the
acknowledgment of names.
They inscribe the words of stone dead
old guys in a great big notebook,
wrap it up in four or five squares of cloth,
and won't let anyone look at it.
"This is the Mysterious Principle,"
they aver, and safeguard it with care.
That's all wrong. Blind idiots!
What kind of juice are you looking f
or in such dried-up bones!
Lin-chi (d.866)
