The one and only thing required is to free oneself from the bondage of mind and body alike, putting the Buddha's own seal upon yourself. If you do this as you sit in ecstatic meditation, the whole universe itself scattered through the infinity of space turns into enlightenment. This is what I mean by the Buddha's seal.

Time is three eyes and eight elbows.

Do not travel to other dusty lands, forsaking your own sitting place; if you cannot find the truth where you are now, you will never find it.

You should study not only that you become a mother when your child is born, but also that you become a child.

If you cannot find the truth right where you are, where else do you expect to find it?

To start from the self and try to understand all things is delusion. To let the self be awakened by all things is enlightenment.

Enlightenment is intimacy with all things.
