I never lost or fail, not yet conquered. If I fall seven times, I get up eight

In order to see a fish you must watch the water

But this mind isn't somewhere outside the material body of the four elements. Without this mind we can't move. The body has no awareness. Like a plant or a stone, the body has no nature. So how does it move? It's the mind that moves.

. . . the fools of this world prefer to look for sages far away. They don't believe that the wisdom of their own mind is the sage . . . the sutras say, "Mind is the teaching." But people of no understanding don't believe in their own mind or that by understanding this teaching they can become a sage. They prefer to look for distant knowledge and long for things in space, buddha-images, light, incense, and colors. They fall prey to falsehood and lose their minds to insanity.

The mind is always present. You just don't see it.

Once you stop clinging and let things be, you'll be free, even of birth and death. You'll transform everything.

To find a Buddha all you have to do is see your nature.
