When we reach
the ultimate stillness, we
joyfully become aware that this mind
of ours is empty, without any things,
and extends infinitely in
all directions.

give up all your preconceived ideas

When you listen to someone,
you should give up all your preconceived ideas
and your subjective opinions; you should just listen to him,
just observe what his way is. We put very little emphasis
on right and wrong or good and bad. We just
see things as they are with him,
and accept them.
when we see clearly
When
we see clearly,
nothing is born, nothing
dies, nothing ever happens.
If you can dwell in emptiness,
breathe emptiness, see
only emptiness, you
will always
be full.

channel your energy toward the light
Don’t
think you can attain
total awareness and whole enlightenment
without proper discipline and practice. This is egomania.
Appropriate rituals channel your emotions and life
energy toward the light. Without the discipline
to practice them, you will tumble
constantly backward into
darkness.
Here is
the great secret:
Just as high awareness
of the subtle truth is gained through
virtuous conduct and sustaining disciplines,
so also is it maintained through these
things. Highly evolved beings
know and respect the
truth of this.

know what came before time
Looked
at but not seen,
listened to but not heard,
grasped for but not held, formless,
soundless, intangible: the tao
resists analysis and defies
comprehension.
Its rising
is not about light,
its setting not a matter of
darkness. Unnameable, unending,
emerging continually, and continually
pouring back into nothingness, it is
formless form, unseeable image,
elusive, evasive unimaginable
mystery. Confront it, and
you won’t see its face.
Follow it and you
can’t find an
end.
Perceive its
ancient subtle heart, however,
and you become master of the moment.
Know what came before time, and
the beginning of wisdom
is yours.
