Attaining the Way is not difficult,
Just avoid picking and choosing.
If you have neither aversion nore desire,
You'll thoroughly understand.
A hair's breadth difference
Is the gap between heaven and earth.
If you want it to come forth,
Let there be no positive and negative,
For such comparisons
Are a sickness of the mind.
Without knowing the Great Mystery
Quiet practice is useless.
The great perfection is the same as the vast space,
Lacking nothing, nothing extra.
Due to picking up and discarding
You will not know it.
Don't chase the conditioned
Nore abide in forbearing emptiness.
In singular equanimity
The self is extinguished.
Causing movement and returning to stillness,
This is complete movement.
But only suppress the two aspects
How can you realize unity?
Not penetrating the one,
The two lose their life.
Reject existence and you fall into it,
Pursue emptiness and you move away from it.
With many words and thoughts
You miss what is right before you.
Cutting off words and thought
Nothing remains unpenetrated.
Return to the root and attain the essence,
For if you chase the light you'll lose the Way.
But if you reflect the light for but a moment,
All previous shadows are dispelled.
All previous shadows are transformed
Because they were all due to delusive views.
It's no use to seek truth,
Just let false views cease.
Don't abide in duality
And take care not to seek,
For as soon as there is yes and no,
The mind is lost in confusion.


The journey is the reward.

Why can't you be normal!
What you mean to say is, Average.

What's the pride in country if it robs a man of will?
What's the pride in manhood if a man will rape and kill?
What's the pride in killing if the dead will rise again?
Ah, but there's a pride in knowing the enemies within.

" All that lives was born to die"-Anom.

With much wisdom comes much sorrow,
The more knowledge, the more grief.

Scholar: I'd like to know what teaching the master offers.

Master: Professor, what teaching do you offer?

Scholar: I lecture upon more than twenty volumes of scripture.

Master: Are you a young lion?

Scholar: I can't so presume.

Master made a roaring noise.

Scholar: This is a teaching.

Master: What teaching is it?

Scholar: The teaching of the lion leaving its den.

Master remained silent.

Scholar: This also is a teaching.

Master: What teaching is it?

Scholar: The teaching of the lion in its den.

Master: Neither going nor coming, what teaching is it?

Scholar didn't answer.

Monk said on the Masters behalf: Do you see?

The scholar then said goodbye and started to leave.

Master called to the Scholar: Professor!

Scholar turned his head.

Master: What is it?

Scholar again didn't answer.

Master: This dull-witted professor!

Last year's poverty was not real poverty.
This year's poverty is finally genuine poverty.
In last year's poverty there was still ground where I could plant my hoe,
In this year's poverty, not even the hoe remains.


The planted flowers have life's nature,
In fertile earth the bloom and live,
Due to the Great Function and Affinity,
The flourish and live, unborn.

Students as numerous as sands in the Ganges but none are awakened.
They err by searching for the path in another person's mouth.
If you wish to forget form and not leave any traces,
Wholeheartedly strive to walk in emptiness.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Monk: Fundamentally, can people become buddhas(God, Enlightenment, etc) or not?

Master: Do you think that the emperor of the Great Tang still plows a field and harvests rice?

Monk: I still don't understand who it is who becomes a buddha.

Master: It's you that becomes a buddha.

Monk was silent.

Master: Do you understand?

Monk: No.

Master: If someone trips on the ground and falls down, and then they use the ground to get up again - does the ground say anything?

Monk asked the Master: What is the difference between heaven and hell?

Master drew a line on the ground.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Monk: How can one escape from birth, old age, sickness, and death?

Master: The green mountain is fundamentally unmoving, but the floating clouds pass back and forth.
