Finally I left to travel to eastern China, but halfway there I turned around and came back. Now I was told to contemplate the story, “‘If you kill your parents, you repent before Buddha; if you kill Buddha, where do you repent?’ Yunmen said, ‘Exposed.’ ” This case study is like a hot iron ball in the mind, and I suffered all kinds of trouble for seven years. Those of you who have studied Zen for a long time will know what I mean.

Meta community admonition:
"OP knows what Foyan means, or he wouldn't have posted the quote"
"We're always turning around halfway and coming back. We must repent before OP."
"Exposed."
NO, JUST NO.
