With thoughts clear,
sitting silently, wander into the
centre of the circle of wonder. This is
how you must penetrate
and study.

a real tao in everyday activities
There is a true buddha
in family life; there is a real tao
in everyday activities. If people can
be sincere and harmonious, promoting
communication with a cheerful demeanor
and friendly words, that is much better
than formal meditation
practice.
the sage looks into her own heart
The tao is the law of nature,
which you can’t depart from for even one
instant. If you could depart from it, it wouldn’t be the tao.
Thus the mature person looks into her own heart and respects
what is unseen and unheard. Nothing is more manifest than
the hidden; nothing is more obvious than the unseen.
Thus the mature person pays attention to what
is happening in his inmost self.
honor comes to those who are correct
the motto for becoming genuine
we all have the clear bright field
Emptiness is without characteristics.
Illumination has no emotional afflictions.
With piercing, quietly profound radiance,
it mysteriously eliminates all disgrace.
Thus one can know oneself; thus
the self is completed.
We all have the clear,
wondrously bright field from the beginning.
Many lifetimes of misunderstanding come only from
distrust, hindrance, and screens of confusion that we create
in a scenario of isolation. With boundless wisdom
journey beyond this, forgetting
accomplishments.
Straightforwardly abandon stratagems
and take on responsibility. Having turned yourself around,
accepting your situation, if you set foot on the path, spiritual energy
will marvelously transport you. Contact phenomena with
total sincerity, not a single atom of dust
outside yourself.
