Grasp Chen requested a scholar who studied the Buddhist Sutras, “In a Sutra it’s stated, ‘Households use it each day and but don’t perceive it.’ What’s it that they don’t perceive?” The scholar stated, “They don’t perceive the Method.” Chen stated, “How do you perceive the Method?” The scholar couldn’t reply.
Scholar: “What’s the Method?”
Grasp: “You’re utilizing it at this second?”
Scholar: “Why don’t I do know it?”
Grasp: “That’s it.”
Commentary:
The Method is just not the Method however the Method.
