"What's this about seeing clearly yet not seeing clearly?"
As soon as the East River Palace Master left, Shi Ze couldn't help but ask.
"The Dao is like a net—it can be seen yet cannot be seen; it's hard to explain." Chen Jichuan shook his head, unsure how to explain it to him.
"The Dao is ineffable."
"If even I cannot see clearly, how can I explain it to others?"
Without asking further, Meng Qing spoke up.
Looking again at Shen Mo, Wu Qi, and Xue Gu's expressions, Shi Ze immediately understood. It seemed that the three of them had also posed similar questions to their teacher in the past, experiencing something similar, and thus knew the complexity and ineffability of the matter.
So, he asked no more.
But he kept it in his mind, resolving to ask and experience it for himself in the future.
...
The East River Palace Master departed.
The True Immortal's lecture on the Dao concluded.
