Ascending the hall to express thanks to the director of affairs, [the Master] said, "A patch-robed monk's family style is simply this: hidden and revealed, polished and ground, entering into complete integration. The lion's leaping back fully returns to the father; the antelope's hanging by its horns involves no shared merit. Therefore it is said: moving, it is like drifting clouds; resting, it is like the valley spirit. In the midst of functioning, it is eternally still; dwelling in obscurity, it becomes ever brighter. Do you understand? When the fruit is complete, Bodhi is fulfilled; when the flower blossoms, the world arises."
