4.22
Ascending the hall, the Master said: "Within it contains brightness: the midnight moon pierces the rhinoceros horn. Therein lies movement: suddenly thunder blossoms on the elephant's tusk. The wonder lies in lateral inquiry; do not violate the honored and noble. Nine years facing the wall at Shaolin: family ugliness is not to be aired outside. When the Second Ancestor stood after three prostrations, his mouth was clumsy, but who knew the agility within? Tiantong today is also exceedingly outrageous."
