The one who talks about the neccesity of stomping in Zen, can't answer a simple question.

One day during work Xuefeng himself was carrying a bundle of wisteria when he encountered a monk on the path. Xuefeng immediately put down the bundle. Just as the monk made to pick it up, Xuefeng pushed him over with his foot. When he got back, he told Changsheng about this and said, "Today I stomped that monk quickly." Changsheng said, "Master, you'll have to go to the infirmary instead of this monk."

Can the one who reccomends a good zen stomping, seriously do so, when he runs away at the slightest hint of a pressing question?
