The one who wanders independent in the world, free from opinions and viewpoints, does not grasp them and enter into disputations and arguments. As the lotus rises on its stalk unsoiled by the mud and the water, so the wise one speaks of peace and is unstained by the opinions of the world.
- Sutta Nipata
If we have...presence of mind then whatever work we do will be the very tool which enables us to know right and wrong continually. There's plenty of time to meditate, we just don't fully understand the practice, that's all. While sleeping we breathe, eating we breathe, don't we? Why don't we have time to meditate? Wherever we are we breathe. If we think like this then our life has as much value as our breath, wherever we are we have time.
- Ajahn Chah, "Taste of Freedom"
If you want to get rid of your enemy, the true way is to realize that your enemy is delusion.
- Kegon Sutra
Arise! Sit up! What advantage is there in your sleeping; What sleep is there to those who are afflicted by disease, Pierced by the arrow of suffering?
- Sutta Nipata
The experience of studying Zen is like hiding your body in fire: even if you have iron guts and a brass heart, here they will surely melt and flux.
- Chien-ju
