43.2
The First Patriarch came from the west transmitting only the Dharma of the one mind. When the Second Patriarch sought the agitated, conceptualizing citta and could not find it, he immediately knew that only the one true citta is perfectly accomplished and all-pervasive; right then the path of words and thoughts was severed, and Bodhidharma granted his seal of approval, whereupon the patriarchal seal came into great circulation down to the present day. Why do you attach to verbal explanations, running counter to your own school? The doctrinal study of the triyāna naturally has its stages and ranks.
