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.

open yourself and give up everything
The way
to study true zen
is not verbal. Just open
yourself and give up everything.
Whatever happens, study closely
and see what you find out.
This is the fundamental
attitude.
the myriad things and I are one
The universe
and I are of the same root.
The myriad things and I are
one body. That is
zazen.
Kodo Sawaki Roshi
think about these three points
Body impermanent like spring mist;
Mind insubstantial like empty sky;
Thoughts unestablished like breezes in space.
Think about these three points over and over.
