There was no Bodhi tree!
Nor was there a mirror!
Originally, there is not a single thing, so where does dust alight?
Everyone including the abbot and the monks all searched for an answer within themselves. They used the gatha from Zhang Ye to question themselves — Where does the dust alight? That’s right! Where does dust alight!
The abbot was convinced as he held his palms together, “Amitabha.”
Following that, the ten or so monks behind him also held their palms together, “Amitabha.”
