Mayu was fanning himself. A monk came and said, "The nature of wind is constant and all-pervading. There is no place it does not reach. Why then do you fan yourself?" Mayu said, "You understand that the nature of wind is constant, but you do not yet understand the meaning of reaching every place." The monk said, "What is the meaning of reaching every place?" Mayu just kept fanning himself. The monk bowed deeply.
