I have seen your reiteration of the "Treatise Resolving Doubts." Its phrasing and principles are incisive and verified; it is excellent in its examination of reality. Yet my views still differ, and I was about to state my thoughts again. One day, while attending the Dharma Master at his seat, we roughly explored your ideas together, and he remarked that when his vitality improved a little, he would naturally make a reply, having also formed some insights based on the purport of your treatise. For this reason, I will not add my torch fire again, but await his accomplished purport and submit mine following his. You state that those who discern allotted destiny are people who embody the ultimate; this is already something we do not agree upon. Furthermore, what I established—that one does not expect retribution, yet celebration and punishment are already clearly displayed—is also not as you positioned it. "Writing does not exhaust words"—this is truly believable here. There are also many minor points within it that I have not yet comprehended; I leave them to a future meeting.
