Introduction: A man presented a jewel three times but didn't escape punishment. When a luminous jewel is thrown to anyone, few do not draw their sword. For an impromptu guest there is no impromptu host; what's appropriate provisionally is not appropriate for the real. If unusual treasures and rare jewels cannot be put to use, I'll bring out the head of a dead cat--look!
Case: Emperor Wu of Liang asked Great Teacher Bodhidharma, (Even getting up at the crack of dawn, he never made a profit at the market.) "What is the highest meaning of the holy truths?" (For the time being turn to the secondary to ask.) Bodhidharma said, "Empty--there's no holy." (Split his guts and gouges out his heart.) The emperor said, " Who are you facing me?" (He finds tusks in his nostrils.) Bodhidharma said, "Don't know." ('If you see jowls from behind his head...') The emperor didn't understand.(A square peg doesn't fit in a round hole.) Bodhidharma subsequently crossed the Yangtse River, came to Shaolin, and faced a wall for nine years.(A house with no surplus goods doesn't prosper.)
