BCR C14: “Yun Men’s Appropriate Statement”

CASE

A monk asked Yun Men, "What are the teachings of a whole lifetime” 1

Yun Men said, "An appropriate statement." 2

NOTES

1. Even up till now they're not finished with. The lecturer does not understand; he's in the cave of entangling complications.

2. An iron hammerhead with no handle-hole. A profuse outburst. A rat gnawing on raw ginger.

NOTES FROM AN 🦉

How to deal with the lost, confused and deluded? How to teach that which cannot be taught?

It’s quite simple. At the appropriate time, respond with an appropriate statement.
