Ying-an Throw Down the Gauntlet

Ying-an, from Wuzu's line, found in some Cleary translation:

When you get to the point where even a thousand people, even ten thousand people, cannot trap you or cage you, that is still not expertise. You must go on to the beyond and active the transcendental key, never injuring your hand against the sharp edge, bringing everyone in the world to life.

.

ewk ^book note ^index - People who claim to "teach" Zen in the West are remarkably insultated from public criticism. There are many examples of this. How can such people hope to demonstrate this "cannot be caged"?
