Just As Parents Care For Their Children, You Should Bear In Mind The Whole Universe.

Be Moderate In Eating And Drinking. Mindful Of The Passing Of Time, Engage Yourself In Zazen As Though Saving Your Head From Fire.

Since We Are Provided With Both A Body And A Mind, We Grasp Onto The Physical Forms We See. Since We Are Provided With Both A Body And A Mind, We Cling To The Sounds We Hear. As A Consequence, We Make Ourselves Inseparable From All Things, Yet We Are Not Like Some Shadowy Figure 'lodging' In A Mirror Or Like The Moon In Water. Whenever We Witness What Is On The One Side, Its Opposite Side Will Be In Darkness.

Continuous Practice, Day After Day, Is The Most Appropriate Way Of Expressing Gratitude. This Means That You Practice Continuously, Without Wasting A Single Day Of Your Life, Without Using It For Your Own Sake. Why Is It So? Your Life Is A Fortunate Outcome Of The Continuous Practice Of The Past. You Should Express Your Gratitude Immediately.

I Haven't Got Any Buddhism. I Live By Letting Things Happen.
