Whispering Language: Wearing a Sword in the East Wind, Calling People with Virtue

The empress asked the sage: "What is benevolence?" The sage said: "A benevolent person divides a person into two." "How to split it in two?" "The dead are like tearing apart their husbands, so naturally they are torn apart." "Sure enough, it's as scary as tearing it apart. What should I do with the body after tearing it apart?" "A wise man enjoys water, and a benevolent man enjoys mountains. Naturally, he throws them into the mountains to feed*." Empress: "..." "What is virtue?" The saint took out his sword and said, "This sword is for virtue." "How can it be virtuous to use a sword for mere ceremonial purposes?" "If a ceremonial sword is not unsheathed, it is a ritual. If it is unsheathed, it is truth." "What is truth?" The Holy Son transformed the sword into a huge cylindrical object. "This thing is called the East Wind. Wherever it goes, it is the truth."
