Yunmen said: 'The body is exposed in the autumn wind.'" The Master commented: "Yunmen's skillful means may be called phenomenon as principle, the concealed as the revealed; the three phrases can be discerned, a single arrow piercing the distant sky. Even so, it still sticks to the skin and clings to the bones. If someone asked Jiangshan: 'How is it when the tree withers and the leaves fall?' I would only say to him: 'Propping up heaven and supporting earth.' Tell me: is it the three phrases? Is it the single arrow? Testing jade requires passing through fire; seeking pearls does not depart from mud." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 18.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.18.9) - [Next: 18.11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.18.11) - [Up: 18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.18) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997~en-mt.18.10) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.18.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.18.10) · Pramāṇa
