16.40

It must always be serene and well. Contemplating the pure and empty, you dwell beyond the wind and clouds; letting your mind roam and entering the principle, you enjoy much joy of samādhi and prajñā. This disciple is entangled in worldly affairs and deeply exhausted. Turning my gaze toward the northern ridge, my admiration for the worthy has long accumulated. I hope the time of our meeting can surely be arranged. Those who have a karmic bond are as if thirsty and hungry. Awaiting your arrival, one day feels like three years. Thinking of propagating benefit, the principle should surely not go astray. I send this letter without fully expressing my feelings. Gang bows in reverence.
