Do not follow the ideas of others, but learn to listen to the voice within yourself. Your body and mind will become clear and you will realize the unity of all things.

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

Being enlightened by all things is to shed the body-mind of oneself, and those of others. No trace of enlightenment remains, and this traceless enlightenment continues endlessly.

That you carry yourself forward and experience the myriad things is delusion. That the myriad things come forward and experience themselves is awakening

Sitting is the gateway of truth to total liberation.
