大方便佛報恩經 6.15

6.15

Question: "If the Buddha taught everything, a sūtra says: 'The Buddha was sitting under a tree, took up a branch of leaves, and asked his disciples, "Are there more leaves on this branch, or are there more leaves on the tree?" They answered, "There are more leaves on the tree." The Buddha said, "The dharmas I know are like the leaves on the tree, and the dharmas I have taught are like the leaves in my palm."' Why then say that the Buddha taught everything?"
