(This line was composed by Chan practitioner Zong on the day he departed the mountain.) / Such generosity is not born of hope; / Before the vast, pure wind there is nowhere to hide. / Known or unknown in heaven above and heaven below, / How could it be merely the five petals and a thousand lamps? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.2.36) - [Next: 2.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.2.38) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996~en-mt.2.37) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.2.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.2.37) · Pramāṇa
