(The first) / In the beginning, the Heavenly River was empty; / the principle is mysterious, penetrating the subtle. / Melting away, forgetting where to go, / thereupon expands the spiritual radiance. / The mind stretches to distant realms; / how could it fail to tread on the pivotal mechanism? / Apply it with the vast void; / meet it with the imperceptible.
