All that’s
important is concentrated
focus, purity, and stillness. Even when
you are engaged in doing things, this is not something
external. Take hold of them and return them to yourself —
this is what wondrous function is. The eighty thousand
sensory afflictions are immediately transformed
into eighty thousand means of transcendence,
and there is no more need to make
a special point of studying
with teachers.
Wisdom brings a wholeness
which understands its own ignorance.
Someone with a little knowledge denies this,
but those who study their lives long and
diligently know that they do not
know anything.
The present
moment is the source of
everything. As long as you have
resentments about the past or ideas
about the future, you cannot
genuinely be in the
present.
You owe it
to your future self, and
to the rest of us, to be completely
absorbed here and now. Make all
notions of past and future a
cool pile of ashes in
the corner.

We are told to
realize that not a single
thing exists. In this field, birth and death
do not appear. The deep source, transparent down
to the bottom, can radiantly shine and respond
unencumbered by each speck of dust
without becoming its
partner.
Forget the body.
Let go of sensations
and obsessions and objects.
Do non-doing to the point that thoughts
cease to arise. Releasing mental constructs and
emotional entanglements, you’ll begin
to flow as a sage. Then let go
of that notion on top
of everything
else.
