Treat every moment as your last. It is not preparation for something else.

Wherever you go you will find your teacher, as long as you have the eyes to see and the ears to hear.

Even if the sun were to rise from the west, the Bodhisattva has only one way.

A tiger does not ignore or slight any small animal. The way he catches a mouse and catches and devours a cow are the same.

When you are just you, without thinking or trying to say something special, just saying what is on your mind and how you feel, then there is naturally self-respect.

If you understand real practice, then archery or other activities can be zen. If you don't understand how to practice archery in its true sense, then even though you practice very hard, what you acquire is just technique. It won't help you through and through. Perhaps you can hit the mark without trying, but without a bow and arrow you cannot do anything. If you understand the point of practice, then even without a bow and arrow the archery will help you. How you get that kind of power or ability is only through right practice.

Everything you do is right, nothing you do is wrong, yet you must still make ceaseless effort.
