70 SIGNLESSNESS

【无相】

如果你只看到一朵花是花，而没有看到其中的阳光、云朵、大地、时间和空间，那你就被“花”的表象所困住了。当你触碰到花的共生本质时，你才真正看到了花。同样，如果你看到一个人，却没有看到他们的社会、教育、祖先、文化和环境，那么你并没有真正看见这个人。相反，你只是被这个人的外在表象和独立个体的外观所迷惑。当你能够深入地看见一个人时，你触碰到了整个宇宙，你将不再被外表所欺骗。

[SIGNLESSNESS]

To see a flower only as a flower, and not to see the sunshine, clouds, earth, time, and space in it, is to be caught in the sign “flower.” When you touch the interbeing nature of the flower, you truly see the flower. If you see a person and don’t also see their society, education, ancestors, culture, and environment, you haven’t really seen that person. Instead, you have been taken in by the sign of that person, their outward appearance, the appearance of being a separate self. When you can see that person deeply, you touch the whole cosmos and you will not be fooled by appearances.
