To have some deep feeling about Buddhism is not the point; we just do what we should do, like eating supper and going to bed. This is Buddhism.

It must be obvious...that there is a contradiction in wanting to be perfectly secure in a universe whose very nature is momentariness and fluidity.

To be different is to have value. In this sense all things have equal, absolute value. Each thing has absolute value and thus is equal to everything else.

When we become truly ourselves, we just become a swinging door, and we are purely independent of, and at the same time, dependent upon everything.

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

In the mind of the beginner, there are many possibilities. In the mind of the expert there are few.

When you say, "Wait a moment," you are bound by your karma; when you say "Yes I will," you are free.
