Words Have Spirit: Notes on Character Testing

I squatted by the Xinjiang River and counted thirty-seven stars. Master said that they were the nine extra stars in the twenty-eight stars, the traces left by mortals who changed their fate against heaven. Later I realized that the first word I tested on people, the word "trapped", was not trapping anyone else but myself. Before he died, Master drew a word on my palm. It was not "prison" but "" - a big frame on the outside and "you" on the inside. Stop when it is limited and do what is appropriate.
