Severing entanglements
means detachmeht from entanglements
in contrived mundane concerns. Relinquish concerns
and your body will not be under a strain,
contrive nothing and your mind will
naturally be calm.
As serenity and simplicity
develop day by day, worldly defilement
lessens day by day. As your behavior departs further
and further from the mundane, your mind
becomes closer and closer
to the Way.
…As long as we do not
initiate anything, others will naturally
not get involved; even if others initiate something,
we do not get involved. As past entangelments gradually
stop, do not form new involvements. Ritual socializing
and opportunistic intercourse naturally become
remote, and you become unburdened
and at peace. Only then can you
practice the Way.
Treatise on Sitting Forgetting
If
the Way
were about being
a student of something,
it wouldn’t be alive in the world.
It lives because certain people say to
themselves, “All this teaching is
just for me. I am the living
expression of
this.”
This
isn’t arrogant.
This is humbly keeping the
buddhas, Lao Tzu, Lalla, Rumi, Suzuki,
Bahauddin, Yuanwu, all of them, alive in the
world. Only you can accomplish this.
You are the only
one.

The reason you
do not understand is just
because you are taken away by random
thoughts twenty-four hours a day. Since you
want to learn business, you fall in love with things
you see and fondly pursue things you read;
over time, you get continuously involved.
How can you manage to work on
enlightenment then?
Simply
release your grasp
on worldly entanglements,
and realization is right
where you
stand.
