1.68

Once, when the Master went to a military camp to attend a vegetarian feast, he saw an official at the gate. The Master pointed to an exposed pillar and asked, "Is this an ordinary person or a sage?" The official had no words. The Master struck the pillar and said, "Even if you could speak, it is still only a wooden peg." He then went inside.
