"Do you think the ground is clean now?"
Li Fan pointed to the spotless courtyard and asked Qing Chen.
Qing Chen fell into deep thought. His master was the ultimate in the Brahman Path; what Brahman principle was he testing him on?
How should he answer so as not to appear foolish?
But Li Fan had already beckoned him over, saying,
"Crouch down."
"Lower your eyes a bit."
Li Fan gently lifted a speck of dust from the crevice with his finger and said,
"See that?"
"Sweeping is never-ending."
Hearing these words, Qing Chen's expression became extremely solemn!
"Master means, the ways of Buddha are limitless, exhausting everything under heaven!"
He had an epiphany.
Li Fan then casually pulled out a nest of ants from his sleeve and said,
"Here, I'll give you something fun to do. From today on, you'll catch ants!"
"A total of nine hundred and ninety-nine ants. When you can catch them all within a quarter of an hour, you'll be ready."
