Zazen practice is the direct expression of our true nature. Strictly speaking, for a human being, there is no other practice than this practice; there is no other way of life than this way of life.

In reflecting on our problems, we should include ourselves.

The beginner's mind is the mind of compassion. When our mind is compassionate, it is boundless.

The mind of the beginner is empty, free of the habits of the experts, ready to accept, to doubt, and open to all possibilities.

Bowing is a very serious practice. You should be prepared to bow, even in your last moment. even though it is impossible to get rid of our self-centered desires, we have to do it. Our true nature wants us to.

To find perfect composure in the midst of change is to find nirvana.
