If the veils obstructed the nature of reality, the nature of reality would break down; if the nature of reality obstructed veils, the veils would not arise. So we know that the veils are none other than the nature of reality; when the veils arise, the nature of reality arises, and when the veils cease, the nature of reality ceases. The Scripture on Absence of Conformations says, “Desire is the Path, and so are anger and folly. All Buddhist teachings are in these three things. If people seek enlightenment apart from desire, they are as far from it as the sky is from the earth. Desire is none other than enlightenment.” The Pure Name Scripture says, “While traveling on false paths one realizes the Path of Buddhas. All beings are the appearance of enlightenment, and it cannot be further attained; all beings are the appearance of nirvana, and it cannot be further extinguished.”

Gongyi Xiao have heard from a random conversation that snakes have two dicks, but he never imagine that the snake demon in front of him also have two dicks and the worst (best) part is he love getting fucked silly by those dicks, especially when Zhuzhi Lang double penetrating him

Chan-jan [i.e. Zhanran, the sixth patriarch of the T’ien-t’ai school] says, “In (empty) space there is no light or dark, for light and dark are dependent on form (ripa) to obstruct each other. (In the same way), there is in the ‘space’ of the Dharma-nature fundamentally neither good nor evil. It is only in the passions of the ordinary person that good and evil obstruct each other … for they are the same in both substance and essence. One who comes to such an understanding is assuredly manifesting enlightenment. Hence he can bring (himself) to practice calming-and-contemplation (even) amid evil. Having realized that there is no (ultimate) evil in evil, he has seen its substance and its essence. Thus he knows that ultimately (‘in substance and in essence’) neither good nor evil exists at all.”
