...The substance of the Absolute is inwardly like wood or stone, in that it is motionless, and outwardly like the void, in that it is without bounds or obstructions. It is neither subjective nor objective, has no specific location, is formless, and cannot vanish. Those who hasten towards it dare not enter, fearing to hurtle down through the void with nothing to cling to or to stay their fall. So they look to the brink and retreat. This refers to all those who seek such a goal through cognition...
Huangbo must have missed the Golden Buddha who will carry you through the void into paradise in exchange for good works. Avalokitesvara, with eyes everywhere, hasn't even seen the dragon hiding in the dark. What stone do I leap to to avoid the getting swallowed up?
