Forgetting Oneself Is Opening Oneself

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.

To Study The Buddha Way Is To Study The Self. To Study The Self Is To Forget The Self. To Forget The Self Is To Be Actualized By Myriad Things. When Actualized By Myriad Things, Your Body And Mind As Well As The Bodies And Minds Of Others Drop Away. No Trace Of Realization Remains, And This No Trace Continues Endlessly.

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

What Is Reality? An Icicle Forming In Fire.

Mountains And Oceans Have Whole Worlds Of Innumerable Wondrous Features. We Should Understand That It Is Not Only Our Distant Surroundings That Are Like This, But Even What Is Right Here, Even A Single Drop Of Water.
