27.67

Linji saw a monk coming and raised his fly whisk. The monk bowed; the Master then struck him. Another monk came; the Master raised his fly whisk. The monk paid no heed; the Master struck him as well. Yet another monk came to visit; the Master raised his fly whisk. The monk said, "I thank the upādhyāya for showing me." The Master also struck him. (Yunmen spoke in his place: "I only doubt the old fellow." Dajue said, "Though he got it, he has not yet seen Linji's dynamic functioning.")
