When the old plum tree blooms, the entire world blooms.

A zen master's life is one continuous mistake.

Do not miss the opportunity of offering even a single drop into the ocean of merit or a grain atop the mountain of the roots of beneficial activity.

Practice and enlightenment are not two.

Realization doesn't destroy the individual any more than the reflection of the moon breaks a drop of water. A drop of water can reflect the whole sky.

There are those who, attracted by grass, flowers, mountains, and waters, flow into the Buddha Way.

An ancient buddha said, “Mountains are mountains; waters are waters.” These words do not mean mountains are mountains; they mean mountains are mountains.
