SOME PRELIMINARY REMARKS TO A STUDY OF RHETORICAL DEVICES IN CHÁN - WITTERN

so it seems safe to say that the aspect of lineage does not seem to play a role in the answering of the question

Well, there you go. That was the jist of the paper, right there.

Also, he counted every time somebody asked somebody why the Patriarch crossed into China, and it turns out it was "a whole lot".
