2.255

"The preface to the treatise says: 'The substance of prajñā is neither existent nor non-existent; being empty it does not lose illumination, and illuminating it does not lose emptiness; therefore it is said that without moving from equal awakening, it establishes all dharmas.' A subsequent chapter says: 'What distinguishes him from [ordinary] men is divine illumination; hence one cannot seek him through phenomenal characteristics.' It also says: 'Function is identical to quiescence, quiescence is identical to function; the spirit becomes all the more still, while the response becomes all the more active.'"
