Zen is not “attained” by mirror-wiping mediation, but by “self-forgetfulness in the existential 'present' of life here and now.” We do not “come”, we “are.” Don't strive to become, but be.

Truth has no path. Truth is living and, therefore, changing. Awareness is without choice, without demand, without anxiety; in that state of mind, there is perception. To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person. Awareness has no frontier; it is giving of your whole being, without exclusion.

Persistence, persistence, and persistence. The Power can be created and maintained through daily practice - continuous effort.

There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.

Moving, be like water. Still, be like a mirror. Respond like an echo.

If your opponent is at a distance, kick him in the groin. If he gets close, poke him in the eyes, bring up your knee, pop him with an elbow, dig a corkscrew punch to his stomach.

More and more I believe in the fact that you have two hands and two legs, and the thing is how to make good use of yourself - and that's about it.
