Zen has no business with ideas.

We do not realize that as soon as our thoughts cease and all attempts at forming ideas are forgotten the Buddha reveals himself before us.

The waters are in motion, but the moon retains its serenity.

Great works are done when one is not calculating and thinking.

The meaning of service is to do the work assigned ungrudgingly and without thought of personal reward material or moral.

Technical knowledge is not enough. One must transcend techniques so that the art becomes an artless art, growing out of the unconscious.

Zen has nothing to teach us in the way of intellectual analysis; nor has it any set doctrines which are imposed on its followers for acceptance.
