“Words! Words! The Way is beyond language, for in it there is no yesterday no tomorrow no today!
“Do not search for the truth; only cease to cherish opinions.”
“Stop talking, stop thinking, and there is nothing you will not understand.”
“The Perfect Way is only difficult for those who pick and choose. Do not like, do not dislike; all will then be clear. Make a hairbreadth difference, and Heaven and Earth are set apart; If you want the truth to stand clear before you, never be for or against. The struggle between “for” and “against” is the mind’s worst disease.”
Seng-ts’an (Jianzhi Sengcan), Third Chinese Patriarch
