The Reading;
Holding in esteem only the intuitive method of the Highest Vehicle, which cannot be communicated in words, he taught nothing but the doctrine of the One Mind; holding that there is nothing else to teach, in that both mind and substance are void and that the chain of causality is motionless. Mind is like the sun journeying through the sky and emitting glorious light uncontaminated by the finest particle of dust. To those who have realized the nature of Reality, there is nothing old or new, and conceptions of it do not attempt to explain it, establish no sects and open no doors or windows. That which is before you is it.
Discussion:
When students praise the Master, there is no more pointing to Zen. When students praise the teaching, there is then something to be taught. Do not attempt to explain it! It is marvelously difficult to grasp intellectually!
