According to the Sutras, evil deeds result in hardships and good deeds result in blessings.

The Way is basically perfect. It doesn't require perfecting.

Not thinking about anything is Zen. Once you know this, walking, sitting, or lying down, everything you do is Zen.

To go from mortal to Buddha, you have to put an end to karma, nurture your awareness, and accept what life brings.

But people of the deepest understanding look within, distracted by nothing. Since a clear mind is the Buddha, they attain the understanding of a Buddha without using the mind.

The ultimate Truth is beyond words. Doctrines are words. They're not the Way.

When your mind doesn't stir inside, the world doesn't arise outside. When the world and the mind are both transparent, this is true vision. And such understanding is true understanding.
