To What Shall I Liken The World?

Truth Is Not Far Away. It Is Nearer Than Near. There Is No Need To Attain It, Since Not One Of Your Steps Leads Away From It.

Clearly I Know, The Mind Is Mountains, Rivers, And The Great Earth; Sun, Moon, And Stars.

When Mountains And Waters Are Painted, Blue, Green, And Red Paints Are Used, Strange Rocks And Wondrous Stones Are Used, The Four Jewels And The Seven Treasures Are Used. Rice-cakes Are Painted In The Same Manner. When A Person Is Painted, The Four Great Elements And Five Skandhas Are Used.

Because Mountains Are High And Broad, The Way Of Riding The Clouds Is Always Reached In The Mountains; The Inconceivable Power Of Soaring In The Wind Comes Freely From The Mountains

Working With Plants, Trees, Fences And Walls, If They Practice Sincerely They Will Attain Enlightenment.
