The Recognition Of The Coming And Going

Every Man Possesses The Buddha-nature. Do Not Demean Yourselves.

When A Buddha Is Painted, Not Only A Clay Altar Or Lump Of Earth Is Used, But The Thirty-two Marks, A Blade Of Grass, And The Cultivation Of Wisdom For Incalculable Eons Are Used. As A Buddha Has Been Painted On A Single Scroll In This Way, All Buddhas Are Painted Buddhas, And All Painted Buddhas Are Actual Buddhas.

If You Want To Travel The Way Of Buddhas And Zen Masters, Then Expect Nothing, Seek Nothing, And Grasp Nothing.

Cease From Practice Based On Intellectual Understanding, Pursuing Words, And Following After Speech.

Do Not Arouse Disdainful Mind When You Prepare A Broth Of Wild Grasses; Do Not Arouse Joyful Mind When You Prepare A Fine Cream Soup.
