2.62

The objection states: Now, the sage's true mind is uniquely luminous, illuminating every single thing; his responsiveness is without fixed direction, moving in encounter with affairs. Illuminating every single thing, his knowing leaves nothing out; moving in encounter with affairs, his encounters do not miss the opportune moment. Because encounters do not miss the opportune moment, there must be an encounter with that which can be encountered; because knowing leaves nothing out, there must be knowing of that which can be known. Because there must be knowing of that which can be known, the sage does not have empty knowing; because there must be an encounter with that which can be encountered, the sage does not have an empty encounter.
