20.9
To shoulder this matter, you must directly possess determined resolution, like someone who will not turn his head back even when struck by a blow. If you half-advance and half-retreat, seemingly believing and seemingly not believing, even if you attain an entry point, you will not be able to withstand smelting in the great furnace and bellows, much less wish to be master amidst the thousands of differences and myriad distinctions. For Miaoxi to speak like this is like hurling a stone in a crowded market—only the one who gets hit knows it. Daoist Konghui, do not doubt it.
