The Master commented: "Directly like a sword leaning against the heavens with awe-inspiring divine majesty, standing wall-like a thousand fathoms high in a flat and level place, yet flat and level where it stands wall-like a thousand fathoms high. Although he was only able to express half of it, Daolin does otherwise: 'Broken in two, it does not become one; / Even the one Dharma does not abide. / Not forming an understanding of one or two, / For eternal kalpas he will suffer drowning and sinking.'" > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 18.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.18.20) - [Next: 18.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.18.22) - [Up: 18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.18) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997~en-mt.18.21) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.18.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.18.21) · Pramāṇa
