in an instant’s space, enlightenment
How should those who
enter the path apply their minds?
All things are originally uncreated and
presently undying. Just let your
mind be free; you don’t have
to restrain it.
See directly and hear directly;
come directly and go directly.
When you must go, then go;
when you must stay, then stay.
This is the true path.
A scripture says, “Conditional
existence is the site of enlightenment,
insofar as you know it as
it really is.”
