Life won’t get simple until
our mind does. Embrace
the great emptiness.

You
must constantly step
back from conventional perceptions and
worldly entanglements to move along on your own
and reflect with independent awareness. Cleanse and purify
your karma of mind, body, and mouth, sit upright
and investigate reality, until you arrive
at subtle insight and clear
liberation.
Right in your own life,
detach from conditioned views and cut off
sentiments. Stand like a wall a mile high…spend twenty
or thirty years doing dispassionate and tranquil meditation
work, sweeping away any conditioned knowledge and
interpretive understanding as soon as it arises,
and not letting the traces of the
sweeping itself remain
either.

Happy in the morning,
I open my cottage door; a clear breeze
blowing comes straight in. The first sun lights
the leafy trees, the shadows it casts are crystal clear.
Serene, in accord with my heart, everything merges
in one harmony. Gain and loss are not my
concern; this way is enough to
the end of my days.
In a pellucid ocean,
bubbles arise and dissolve again.
Just so, thoughts are no different from
ultimate reality, so don’t find fault; remain at ease.
Whatever arises, whatever occurs, don’t grasp —
release it on the spot. Appearances, sounds,
and objects are all one’s own mind;
there’s nothing except
mind.
Avoid
attempting to force
a completion. Go slowly,
methodically, and with
quiet balance.
