“Consider the sunlight. You may say that it is near, yet if you pursue it from world to world you will never catch it. You may say it is far, yet it is right before your eyes. Chase it and it always eludes you; run from it and it is always there. From this example you can understand how it is with the true nature of things.” IfsWorldMayEyeRunningExamplePursueSunlightTrue NatureEludeElude You Author:Huangbo Xiyun
“As soon as the mouth is opened, evils spring forth. People either neglect the root and speak of the branches, or neglect the reality of the 'illusory' world and speak only of Enlightenment. Or else they chatter of cosmic activities leading to transformations, while neglecting the Substance from which they spring--indeed, there is NEVER any profit in discussion.” PeopleWorldMindRealityEvilSpeakActivitySpringEnlightenmentMouthsRootsTransformationProfitSubstanceDiscussionBranchesNeglectCosmicIllusoryChatter Author:Huangbo Xiyun
