Now I think of taking a thrashing of the stick: who will strike me?' A monk came forward from the assembly and said, 'I will strike.' Linji picked up the stick and offered it to the monk. As the monk was about to take it, \[Linji\] struck him." The Master said, "Where Linji let go was quite perilous; his drawing it back was too swift." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.3.12) - [Next: 3.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.3.14) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996~en-mt.3.13) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.3.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.3.13) · Pramāṇa
