To What Shall I Liken The World? Moonlight, Reflected In Dewdrops, Shaken From A Crane's Bill.

Know That The True Dharma Emerges Of Itself [during The Practice Of Zazen], Clearing Away Hindrances And Distractions.

Just Practice Good, Do Good For Others, Without Thinking Of Making Yourself Known So That You May Gain Reward. Really Bring Benefit To Others, Gaining Nothing For Yourself. This Is The Primary Requisite For Breaking Free Of Attachments To The Self.

When You Paint Spring, Do Not Paint Willows, Plums, Peaches, Or Apricots, But Just Paint Spring. To Paint Willows, Plums, Peaches, Or Apricots Is To Paint Willows, Plums, Peaches, Or Apricots - It Is Not Yet Painting Spring.
