6.12
"Old Man Juzhi's one-finger Chan: (He drew back the donkey's hooves.)
For thirty years, he used it without exhausting it. (To this day, they raise hands and put them down in confusion.)
Truly there is the Wayfarer's technique beyond the world; (Here, it cannot be used.)
Completely devoid of worldly objects to look upon before his eyes. (Still disliking that it is too little.)
What he attained was extremely simple; (Filling heaven and earth.)
His deployment was ever broad: (Not requiring a single pinch.)
The oceans of realms of the great chiliocosm are drunk by the tip of a hair. (Not leaving a single drop.)
Into whose hands do the endless scaled dragons fall? (Tiantong is still here.)
Take care, Lord Ren holding the fishing rod!" (Indeed, a startling skill.)
The Master again held up a finger and said, "Look!" (Shaming people to death.)
