Mountains and rivers at this very moment are the actualization of the world of the ancient Buddhas. Each, abiding in its phenomenal expression, realizes completeness.

Life and death are of supreme importance. Time swiftly passes by and opportunity is lost. Each of us should strive to awaken. Awaken. Take heed, do not squander your life.

Continuous practice, day after day, is the most appropriate way of expressing gratitude. This means that you practice continuously, without wasting a single day of your life, without using it for your own sake. Why is it so? Your life is a fortunate outcome of the continuous practice of the past. You should express your gratitude immediately.

If we seek the Buddha outside the mind, the Buddha changes into a devil.

Those who seek the easy way do not seek the true way.

Do not practice buddha-dharma with the thought that it is to benefit others.

The recognition of the coming and going of things is a first step in training and practice.
