Don’t indulge in any unnecessary, sophisticated moves

How can there be methods and systems to arrive at something that is living? To that which is static, fixed, dead, there can be a way, a definite path, but not to that which is living. Do not reduce reality to a static thing and then invent methods to reach it. ...Truth has no path. Truth is living and, therefore, changing. It has no resting place, no form, no organized institution, no philosophy. When you see that, you will understand that this living thing is also what you are. You cannot express and be alive through static, put-together form, through stylized movement.

Success is not in reaching the destination, but in making the journey.

In Buddhism, there is no place for using effort. Just be ordinary and nothing special. Eat your food, move your bowels, pass water and when you're tired go and lie down. The ignorant will laugh at me, but the wise will understand.

If there is a God, he is within. You don't ask God to give you things, you depend on God for your inner theme.

If you knew you had to fight for your life tomorrow, would you change your training today?

Long-term consistency trumps short-term intensity.
