Baizhang stated, “As a result of that particular person could not have the means of creating a livelihood.”
Pupil: “Why doesn’t the particular person have the means of creating a livelihood?”
Grasp: “As a result of all folks care for him.”
Pupil: “What occurs if we don’t care for him?”
Grasp: “He by no means cares.”
