2.7

Ascending the hall, [the Master] took up his staff, struck once, gave a shout, and said, "Deshan's blow, Linji's shout—today I bring them up again for you. How high the heavens, how wide the earth! Stop adding trash on top of a heap of sweepings. Change your bones, wash out your guts; Jingshan takes three steps back and permits you all to deliberate. But how will you deliberate?" Throwing down the staff, he gave a shout and said, "With rouge and powder, it is easy to become an upright lady; without money, it is hard to be a fine fellow."
