9.85

In silence there is mind-to-mind transmission; / do not observe it by means of characteristics. / In the smoky nest, the crane dreams; / in the moon's cavern, the toad is cold. / In stillness, ten thousand conditions are tucked inside the nostrils; / in laughter, a hundred affairs appear upon the eyebrows. / Now with beard and hair half-speckled with white, / he has faced the Way in the monastic grove, braving a hundred hardships.
