When you understand one thing through and through, you understand everything.

We try, and we try, and we fail; and then we go deeper.

Don't move. Just die over and over. Don't anticipate. Nothing can save you now because you have only this moment. Not even enlightenment will help you now because there are no other moments. With no future, be true to yourself and express yourself fully. Don't move.

Our mind should be free from traces of the past, just like the flowers of spring.

How much 'ego' do you need? Just enough so that you don't step in front of a bus.

Those who sit perfectly physically usually take more time to obtain the true way of Zen.

Moment after moment everything comes out of nothingness. This is the true joy of life.
