Clouds and rain moisten impartially, and grasses and trees receive without mind. If the moistening were impartial while the receiving were with mind, conditions and teaching would diverge; how then could there be comprehension? Thus, adducing mindless roots to reveal the impartial teaching may be called: the one who expounds the Dharma expounds nothing and indicates nothing; the one who listens to the Dharma hears nothing and attains nothing. It is also expounding like an illusory exposition and hearing like an illusory hearing: revealing the Way without words, and the raining of flowers where hearing is cut off—that is what this refers to. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.8.9) - [Next: 8.11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.8.11) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721~en-mt.8.10) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.8.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.8.10) · Pramāṇa
