2.462

"If all dharmas have illusory characteristics, why do you ask: 'From where did you pass away to come and be born here?'" / Fifth, rebuking. If the Buddha says that all dharmas have illusory characteristics, then illusory birth is not birth, and illusory passing away is not passing away; why ask further about passing away and being born here? Zhao says: Being born is like being conjured into existence; dying is like being conjured away. Things of the world are all like this; why ask only of me?
