Dasui the Destroyer

[A monk asked] “Myriad things come from mind—where does mind come from?”
[Dasui said] “A stone ox gallops along the river, sparks in the water burn the sky.”

The Treasury of the Eye of True Teaching
Case 81

Comments: I see a child with a toy ox made of stone playfully dancing it along the waves of a river. The waves and splashes each reflecting the sun in the clear blue sky, each ablaze with radiance. I know what it means to me, but I'm curious what it means to other people. What do you think Dasui meant?
