Master Foyan said to an assembly, A thousand talks and myriad explanations are not as good as seeing once in person. It is clear of itself, even without explanation. The allegory of the king’s precious sword, the allegory of the blind men groping the elephant, in Chan studies the phenomenon of awakening on being beckoned from across the river, the matter of the crags deep in the mountains where there are no people—these are all to be seen in person; they are not in verbal explanation.
My comment: Why doesnt Foyan have a beard?
