6.17

Phenomena upon phenomena are naturally so, wondrously transcending the path of words. Fully realized without interruption, even the mountains, forests, grass, and trees have never failed to manifest this affair. Only when you see through it do you realize that the form of the broad and long tongue cannot be concealed or shrunk back anywhere. The speaker is the listener; the listener is the speaker. Sense-faculties and sense-dusts merge, principle and wisdom blend, self and other are identical, mind and phenomena are one—where else would one make distinctions? Even though it is like this, having penetrated what is before your eyes, you must swiftly gather it up and return to take up the family business inside the house before you can sit stably.
