妙明曰。子之所言。可謂見外而未見其內（責客曰。子能見他外教中說生死鬼神之事。不見自己教中亦有所言之事。中庸。子曰。鬼神之為德也。太極圖曰。原始反終。故知生死之說。註曰。始處是生。言生之初。終處是已。言已定說死）。

> Miaoming said, "What you have said may be called seeing what is external without yet seeing what is internal (Rebuking the guest, he says: You can see that external teachings speak of matters of life and death, ghosts and spirits, but you do not see that within your own teaching there are also things said of them. The Doctrine of the Mean says: 'The Master said, "How abundantly do ghosts and spirits manifest their virtuest!"' The Diagram of the Supreme Polarity says: 'Tracing things to their origin and returning to their end, one understands the teachings on life and death.' The commentary says: 'The beginning is life, meaning the origin of life. The end is cessation, meaning that having concluded, it is said to be death.').
