He cited: "Jingqing asked a monk: 'What is that sound outside the gate?' The monk said: 'The sound of raindrops.' Jingqing said: 'Sentient beings are inverted, deluded about themselves and chasing after things.' The monk said: 'What about you, Venerable Sir?' Jingqing said: 'I am on the verge of not being deluded about myself.' The monk said: 'What is the meaning of this?' Jingqing said: 'To step forth from the body may still be easy; to shed the form and speak [the truth] must be difficult.'"
