Nothing can be gained by extensive study and wide reading. Give them up immediately.

Life and death are of supreme importance. Time swiftly passes by and opportunity is lost. Each of us should strive to awaken. Awaken! Take heed, do not squander your life.

Every man possesses the Buddha-nature. Do not demean yourselves.

If you are unable to find the truth right where you are, where else do you expect to find it?

It does not matter where you go and what you study, what matters most is what you share with yourself and the world.

There is a simple way to become buddha: When you refrain from unwholesome actions, are not attached to birth and death, and are compassionate toward all sentient beings, respectful to seniors and kind to juniors, not excluding or desiring anything, with no designing thoughts or worries, you will be called a buddha. Do not seek anything else.
