@{ Koans = @( @' The whole moon and the entire sky Are reflected in one dewdrop on the grass. '@ @' This is how your mind is. Its light penetrates everywhere And engulfs everything, So why does it not know itself? '@ @' Who is hearing? Your physical being doesn't hear, Nor does the void. Then what does? '@ @' Mountains are merely mountains. '@ @' Hell is not punishment; it is training. '@ @' Do not mistake any state for Self-realisation, but continue To ask yourself even more intensely, What is it that hears? '@ @' The most important thing is to find out what is the most important thing. '@ @' If you want to be free, Get to know your real self. '@ @' Knowledge and ignorance are interdependent; Delusion and enlightenment condition each other. '@ @' Even if you speak of the wonder of it all, How do you deal with each thing changing? '@ @' A world of dew, And within every dewdrop A world of struggle. '@ @' When you smash the citadel of doubt, Then the Buddha is simply yourself. '@ @' I see mountains once again as mountains, And waters once again as waters. '@ @' When the many are reduced to one, To what is the one reduced? '@ @' Everything the same, Everything distinct. '@ @' Make the mountains dance. '@ @' No one is injured but by himself. '@ @' Each branch of coral holds up the moon. '@ @' Out of nowhere, the mind comes forth. '@ @' A man sits atop a hundred-foot pole; how can he go further up? '@ @' A pupil in such a great hurry learns slowly. '@ @' The wind does not move, The banner does not move; Only your mind moves. '@ @' Without speaking, without silence, How can you express the truth? '@ @' Sickness and medicine correspond to each other. The whole world is medicine. What is the self? '@ @' Choosing to raise a goose in a bottle, How will you get it out once it is grown? '@ @' Nothing is exactly as it seems, nor is it otherwise. '@ @' To a mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders. '@ @' To create is to see what all can see but think what none have thought. '@ @' If you understand, things are just as they are. If you do not understand, things are just as they are. '@ @' Maybe you are searching among the branches, For what only appears in the roots. '@ @' The giver should be thankful. '@ @' As the light of a small candle will spread from one to another in succession, So the light of the Buddha's compassion will pass from one mind to another endlessly. '@ @' To doubt the walking of the mountains means That one does not yet know one's own walking. '@ @' Grasping nothing, discarding nothing. In every place there's no hindrance, no conflict. My supernatural power and marvelous activity: Drawing water and chopping wood. '@ @' There's doing nothing, And then there's doing nothing. One blade releases The energies of the Earth, The other rusts in a stump. '@ @' The Path of Excess Is the exact opposite Of the Eightfold Path. Right View, Right Speech, Right Action... All simple matters of scale. '@ @' The oceans may rage, But underneath the waters The Leviathans Frisk and frolick together In the Land of Tranquil Light. '@ @' The coin lost in the river Is found in the river. '@ @' Without speaking, without silence, How can you express the truth? '@ @' If you perceive something as not beautiful, you're not looking long enough. '@ @' In order to write good code, you must become the code. '@ @' Mind is not the Buddha, reason is not the Way. '@ @' If you want to fly, give up everything that weighs you down. '@ @' There are two rules in life: 1. Never give out all of the information. '@ @' You are the designer of your own catastrophe. '@ @' When you realise how perfect everything is, you will tilt your head back and laugh at the sky. '@ ) } |
