“ The ancient worthies since time immemorial were not
without knowledge and understanding; those lofty people were
not the same as the common run. Now you cannot mature yourselves
and stand on your own, so you pass the time uselessly.
Don’t misapply your minds; no one can take your place, but
there’s nothing for you to worry about either. Don’t seek from
others. All along you have been depending on interpretations
from others, so you get bogged down whatever you say, and
your light does not penetrate freely simply because there is something
in front of your eyes.”
Guizong
