Let change —

even traumatic upheaval —

remind you that anything is possible.

When the dark cloud of chaos hangs

over you, let possibility be

the silver lining.

The

clear wind

and the bright moon

demonstrate the

great truth.

Kusan Sunim

The

way of love is

not a subtle argument.

The door there is devastation.

Birds make great sky-circles of their

freedom. How do they learn that?

They fall, and falling,

they’re given

wings.

Rumi

Not

coveting a single

thing is the greatest gift

you can give to the

universe.

Kodo Sawaki Roshi

There are names,

such as Buddha, God, or Heavenly Way;

but they all point to the mind which is nothingness.

Live always with the mind of total nothingness,

and the evils that come to you will

dissipate completely.

Munan 

The more you talk and think about it,

The further astray you wander from the truth.

Stop talking and thinking,

And there is nothing you will not be able to know.

To return to the root is to find the meaning,

But to pursue appearances is to miss the source.

At the moment of inner enlightenment

There is a going beyond appearance and emptiness.
