1.54

Formerly, in the assembly on Vulture Peak, the Bhagavat held up a flower and showed it to the assembly. At that time the assembly was entirely silent; only the Venerable Kāśyapa broke into a smile. The Bhagavat said: "I have the treasury of the true Dharma eye, the wondrous mind of nirvana, the true form without form, the subtle Dharma gate, not establishing words and letters, a special transmission outside the teachings. I entrust it to Mahākāśyapa."
