There
is nothing that
is impure, nothing in need of
elimination, no place to go, not a thing to
obtain. Shed the duality that you are a seeker
in search of some attainment. Just be
as you are, without attachment
to anything, anyone,
any state, any
ideal.

An unspectacular life
may be a garden rich in delight,
in queer paths, perfumed herbs, and
marble cloisters. “I live a life of no major
accomplishments,” said the oldest man
alive. High living is ephemeral, quick
to change; the light soon dims
among tower peaks.
Your
enlightenment
is right where you stand.
Look outside yourself no longer.
Dissolve your false understandings
completely and accept the
reality that mastery
is yours to
embody.

“i’m so grateful for having known him”
All things are set
on a nonabiding basis. The nonabiding basis is
based on nonabiding. If you can reach a thorough understanding
of this, then all things are One Suchness, and you cannot
find even the slightest signs
of abiding.
The whole of
your present activities and behavior
is nonabiding. Once the basis is clear to you,
it will be like having eyes: the sun is shining brightly,
and you can see all kinds of colors and
forms. Isn’t this the mainspring of
transcendent wisdom?
Yongjia said,
“Without leaving wherever you are,
there is constant clarity.” No words come closer
to the truth than these. If you start seeking, then we know
that you are unable to see. Just cut off any duality between
“wherever you are” and “constant clarity,” and make
yourself peaceful and serene. Avoid concocting
intellectual understanding and seeking.
As soon as you seek, it is like
grasping at shadows.
disengage from negative feelings
Your ego
is unsatisfied with
the path of correctness.
However, to strive out of desire
or despair will bring misfortune.
Cling to what is calm and good
no matter what others do,
and allow the Creative
to work in its
own time.
