8.23

Instructing the assembly, he cited: "Yunmen said, 'Say a phrase on the tips of the hundred grasses.' The assembly was silent. He spoke on their behalf, saying, 'All.' Old Master Yuanwu said, 'Stab!'" The Master said, "Pervasive." He further said: / "All, Stab, Pervasive— / The sun's disc is at noon. / General Li shot the stone tiger; / Though piercing through to the other side, / In vain was loosed the bow of a thousand jun."
