what remains is Reality...

If I ask you what is the taste of your mouth,

all you can do is to say:

it is neither sweet
nor bitter nor sour nor astringent;

it is what
remains when all these tastes are not.

Simi-
larly, when all distinctions and reactions are
no more,

what is remains is reality, simple
and solid.
