天只是一个大底物，须是大著心肠看他，始得。以天运言 之，一日固是转一匝，然又有大转底时候，不可如此偏滞 求也。□。

Translation:
Heaven is nothing more than a large thing. One must enlarge one's heart and guts
to look at it, otherwise you will not get it. In terms of the revolutions of heaven,
one day is indeed one revolution, but there are at times also greater revolutions.
One cannot seek it in a biased and stagnant way.
Xian
Commentary:
It is unfortunate that we are not told what some student of Zhu Xi's said to produce this response. From the general flow of ideas in this passage, it appears that the student may have said something that implied that his concept of Heaven amounted to nothing more than the daily revolution of the sun and stars across the sky above.
