2.97

'You have already renounced household life. One's nature may be dull or bright; learning is not a matter of quantity, but lies essentially in cultivation and diligence. Superior practitioners sit in meditation; middling practitioners chant sūtras; lesser practitioners manage the affairs of stupas and monasteries. How can you accomplish nothing all day long? To establish oneself without any renown may be called living in vain. Now I instruct you: you should rectify your minds.'
