18.18

來論又以為。天地曠遠人事細近。一善一惡無關冥應。然則天網恢恢疎而遂失耶。莫見乎隱。莫顯乎微。但盈換藏於日用。交賒昧乎理緣。故或乖於視聽耳。山崩鍾應。不以路遠喪感。火澤革性不以同象成親。詳檢數端可以少悟矣。

Your treatise also considers that heaven and earth are vast and distant, while human affairs are minute and near, so that a single good or a single evil is unrelated to unseen response. But if so, then the net of heaven is vast—is it coarse and so lets things slip through? "Nothing is more visible than what is hidden, nothing is more manifest than what is subtle." It is only that fullness and alteration are concealed within daily function, and deferred debts are obscure in their causal conditions; thus they occasionally conflict with what is seen and heard. When a mountain collapses, the bronze bell resonates, not losing sympathy on account of the distance of the road; when fire and lake alter their natures, they do not become close on account of sharing the same image. If one closely examines these several points, one may attain a slight awakening.
