To make use of your mind to think conceptually is to leave substance and attach yourself to form
Huangbo Xiyun...concepts are related to the senses; and, when feeling takes place, wisdom is shut out.
Huangbo XiyunOur original nature is...void, omnipresent, silent, pure; it is glorious and mysterious peaceful joy - and that is all. Enter deeply into it by awakening yourself.
Huangbo XiyunThe nature of the Absolute is neither perceptible nor imperceptible; and with phenomena it is just the same. But to one who has discovered his real nature, how can there be anywhere or anything separate from it?... ...Therefore it is said: 'The perception of a phenomenon IS the perception of the Universal Nature, since phenomena and Mind are one and the same.'
