Grasp Woonmun mentioned to his college students, “It’s mentioned that you must attain enlightenment by seeing kinds and listening to sounds. What’s it to realize enlightenment by seeing kinds and listening to sounds?” No pupil responded. The grasp, elevating his hand, mentioned, “Avalokitesvara introduced cash and acquired a bit of cake.” He, decreasing his hand, mentioned, “It was initially a slice of bread.”
Scholar: “What did Woonmun imply by ‘Avalokitesvara introduced cash and acquired a bit of cake’?”
Grasp: “He revealed sounds.”
Scholar: “What did he imply by decreasing his hand?”
Grasp: “He confirmed kinds.”
Commentary:
Realise that sounds should not sounds and that kinds should not kinds and you will notice the true-Self.
