He cited: "'The response and transformation bodies are not the true Buddha, nor are they the expounder of Dharma.'" The Master said, "The exposition of the response and transformation bodies is itself the exposition of the dharmakāya; it is also called facing the embodiment completely true, using the dharmakāya to eat the dharmakāya." He also said, "Rice is not the dharmakāya; the staff is not the dharmakāya."
