Only one person in a million becomes enlightened without a teacher's help.
The mind is the root from which all things grow. If you can understand the mind, everything else is included.
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.
At every moment where language can't go, that's your mind.
And the Buddha is the person who's free: free of plans, free of cares.
As mortals, we're ruled by conditions, not by ourselves.
