Ascending the hall for the beginning of the summer retreat, he said: "Dwelling in the sign of non-dwelling, who gives tracks to coming and going? Attaining the mind of non-attainment, the merits of object and self dispel themselves. Completely enclosing with nothing outside, the worlds of the ten directions are a single saṅghārāma. Equal without distinctions, all sentient beings are my kinfolk. The hundred streams gather in the ocean to become a single flavor; the myriad dharmas return to the nature to become a single family. Just tell me: what is the meaning of protecting living beings and observing confinement? Do you understand? Bias and upright have never left their original positions; how could non-arising involve verbal conditions?"
