1.31

Question: 'Tradition says that three people among Bodhidharma's disciples attained the Dharma with varying degrees of depth. The nun Zongchi said, "Sever defilements and realize bodhi." The Master said, "You have attained my skin." Daoyu said, "Delusion is defilement, awakening is bodhi." The Master said, "You have attained my flesh." Huike said, "Originally there are no defilements; fundamentally it is bodhi." The Master said, "You have attained my marrow." Now, saying defilement is identical to bodhi and so forth slightly resembles the views of skin and flesh; how can you say nothing surpasses the perfect and sudden?'
