To Die by the Staff

The Reading:

Shoyoroku - Case 34: Fuketsu's "Speck of Dust" [1]

Fuketsu, giving instruction, said, "If one raises a speck of dust, the house and the nation prosper. If one does not raise a speck of dust, they perish." Setcho held up his staff and said, "Is there anyone who lives and dies with this?"

Discussion:

Ah, yes!  The staff that kills, the staff that makes alive again!  I think he got it from Ummon.
