Having entered the Dharma Hall for a formal instruction, Master Yunmen said: “ The Buddha attained the Way when the morning star appeared.”
A monk asked: “What is it like when one attains the Way at the appearance of the morning star?”
Master Yunmen said: “ Come here, come here [I’ll show it to you]!”
The monk went closer.
Master Yunmen hit him with his staff and chased him out of the Dharma Hall.

No red-bearded barbarian to be found here.
