4.35

Ascending the hall for Bathing the Buddha: "The plantain without ears hears thunder and blossoms; the sunflower without eyes follows the sun and turns. Old Shakya is also unborn, yet every year on this day we bathe him once. Since he is unborn, what is being bathed? If there are branches, climb the branches; if there are no branches, follow precedent."
