5.20

問：出家何以禮俗？答：入道恩深，碎身莫報。此諸比丘方行大道，豈存小儀。

Question: Why would renunciants bow to a householder? Answer: The debt of gratitude for entry into the Way is profound; even crushing one's body could not repay it. These monks were just now setting forth on the Great Way; how could they hold to petty decorum?
