11.21
"If one can transform things, / One is identical with the Tathāgata. / Bah, Gautama! / Cheating and terrifying the foolish and naive! / Things have no self-nature, / And I too do not exist. / Who is the one that transforms? / Vainly exhausting mind and hands. / Knowing there is no self-nature, / What thing is it again? / A sudden stir of emotional dust, / Grasping at empty space and feeling for bones. / This hermitage is unconditioned; / Who is the person dwelling within? / Endowed with the eye on the top of the head, / Try discerning who is distant and who is close."
