‘The eye cannot see the pervasive Buddha body. The ear cannot hear the pervasive Buddha body. Speech cannot describe the pervasive Buddha body. The mind cannot imagine the pervasive Buddha body. Even if you can behold the entire great earth, not missing a trace, then you’ve only gone half-way. And if called on to do so, how would you describe it? Within its boundaries the sun and moon are suspended – the universal clear emptiness – the endless source of spring.’ (Zen’s Chinese Heritage)
