4.51

Ascending the hall, he said: "'Form is not different from emptiness; emptiness is not different from form.' The head gardener greatly wanted the ancients to have already spoken it; why did he knowingly offend?" On [their] behalf he said: "How can one help that it only turns out to be more?" He asked a monk: "I say it only turns out to be more; what do you say?" The monk said: "I do not understand." The master said: "Disturbing the spring breeze, never coming to an end."
