An enlightened person does not ignore things and does not stick to things, not even to the truth.

You want to eliminate your evil desires in order to reveal your Buddha nature, but where will you throw them away?

And we should forget, day by day, what we have done; this is true non-attachment. And we should do something new. To do something new, of course we must know our past, and this is alright. But we should not keep holding onto anything we have done; we should only reflect on it. And we must have some idea of what we should do in the future. But the future is the future, the past is the past; now we should work on something new.

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

Everything is perfect, but there is a lot of room for improvement.

When you accept everything, everything is beyond dimensions. The earth is not great nor a grain of sand small. In the realm of Great Activity picking up a grain of sand is the same as taking up the whole universe. To save one sentient being is to save all sentient beings. Your efforts of this moment to save one person is the same as the eternal merit of Buddha.

There are, strictly speaking, no enlightened people, there is only enlightened activity.
