1.48

疏云「稱聖心冥寂，理極同無。雖處有名之中，而遠與無名同。」斯理之玄，固常彌昧者。以此為懷，自可忘言內得，取定方寸。復何足以人情之所異，而求聖心之異乎。

Your letter states: 'Stating that the sage mind is darkly quiescent, and its principle reaches its peak in being identical with non-being... Although dwelling amidst the named, it is distantly identical with the nameless. The mystery of this principle is indeed what has always been obscure.' If you cherish this in mind, you can naturally forget words and attain it within, settling it in your own heart. How could it be appropriate to investigate the distinctiveness of the sage mind using the distinctions of human sentiments?
