everything comes from your own heart


 

When you stop your

compulsive mind, to reach the point

where not a single thing is born, you pass

through to freedom, no longer falling

into feelings and not dwelling

on concepts, transcending

all completely.

 

Then Zen is obvious everywhere

in the world, with the totality of everything everywhere

turning into its great function. Everything comes from your

own heart. This is what one ancient called bringing

out the family treasure.
