無門關 1.254

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.254](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2005.1.254)

石霜和尚云。百尺竿頭如何進步。又古德云。百尺竿頭坐底人。雖然得入。未為真。百尺竿頭須進步十方世界現全身。

> Upādhyāya Shishuang said, "At the top of a hundred-foot pole, how do you step forward?" An ancient worthy also said, "A person sitting at the top of a hundred-foot pole, though he has attained entry, is not yet true \[reality\]. At the top of a hundred-foot pole, one must step forward: manifest the entire body throughout the worlds of the ten directions."
