18.49

Wei asked a third time: Your answer states: 'Due to teaching, faith has the merit of daily advance; but since illumination is not gradual, there is no degree of entering into illumination.' Now, as for one who reveres the teaching and seeks the ultimate: although it is not used forever, at the time of seeking, how could one not temporarily unite with non-being? If you grant that he temporarily unites with it, that is still superior to not uniting with it; how is this not gradual?
