A flower falls, even though we love it; and a weed grows, even though we do not love it....In this way our life should be understood. Then there is no problem.

If I tell you something, you will stick to it and limit your own capacity to find out for yourself.

Nothing outside yourself can cause any trouble. You yourself make the waves in your mind. If you leave your mind as it is, it will become calm. This mind is called big mind.

Even though you have pain in your legs, you can do it. Even though your practice is not good enough, you can do it.

Our practice should be based on the ideal of selflessness. Selflessness is very difficult to understand. If you try to be selfless, that is already a selfish idea. Selflessness will be there when you do not try anything.

When you try to understand everything, you will not understand anything. The best way is to understand yourself, and then you will understand everything.

Let your ears hear without trying to hear. Let the mind think without trying to think and without trying to stop it. That is practice.
