There are mountains hidden in mountains. There are mountains hidden in hiddenness. This is complete understanding.

When one first seeks the truth, one separates oneself from it.

There is no beginning to practice nor end to enlightenment; There is no beginning to enlightenment nor end to practice.

Truth is not far away. It is nearer than near. There is no need to attain it, since not one of your steps leads away from it.

Those who see worldly life as an obstacle to Dharma see no Dharma in everyday actions. They have not yet discovered that there are no everyday actions outside of Dharma.

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

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.
