But when you first embark on the Path, your awareness won't be focused. You're likely to see all sorts of strange, dreamlike scenes. But you shouldn't doubt that all such scenes come from your own mind and nowhere else.

The essence of the Way is detachment. And the goal of those who practice is freedom from appearances.

To have a body is to suffer.

Someone who seeks the Way doesn't look beyond himself.

You can't know your real mind as long as you deceive yourself.
