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.
Do not practice buddha-dharma with the thought that it is to benefit others.
Do not view mountains from the scale of human thought.
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.
If you want to see things just as they are, then you yourself must practice just as you are.
One must be deeply aware of the impermanence of the world.
