When Other Sects Speak Well Of Zen,

Students Of The Way Must Not Study Buddhism For The Sake Of Themselves. They Must Study Buddhism Only For The Sake Of Buddhism. The Key To This Is To Renounce Both Body And Mind Without Holding Anything Back And To Offer Them To The Great Sea Of Buddhism.

If You Want To See Things Just As They Are, Then You Yourself Must Practice Just As You Are.

Practice And Enlightenment Are Not Two.

Life And Death Are Nothing But The Mind. Years, Months, Days, And Hours Are Nothing But The Mind. Dreams, Illusions, And Mirages Are Nothing But The Mind. The Bubbles Of Water And The Flames Of Fire Are Nothing But The Mind. The Flowers Of The Spring And The Moon Of The Autumn Are Nothing But The Mind. Confusions And Dangers Are Nothing But The Mind.

Life And Death Are Of Supreme Importance. Time Swiftly Passes By And Opportunity Is Lost. Each Of Us Should Strive To Awaken. Awaken. Take Heed, Do Not Squander Your Life.
