As long as you look for a Buddha somewhere else, you'll never see that your own mind is the Buddha
BodhidharmaWhoever realizes that the six senses aren't real, that the five aggregates are fictions, that no such things can be located anywhere in the body, understands the language of Buddhas.
BodhidharmaUnless you see your nature, all this talk about cause & effect is nonsense. Buddhas don't practice nonsense.
BodhidharmaPeople of this world are deluded. They're always longing for something, always, in a word, seeking. But the wise wake up. They choose reason over custom. They fix their minds on the sublime and let their bodies change with the seasons.
