In Doing Zazen It Is Desirable To Have A Quiet Room. You Should Be Temperate In Eating And Drinking, Forsaking All Delusive Relationships. Setting Everything Aside, Think Of Neither Good Nor Evil, Right Nor Wrong. Thus Having Stopped The Various Functions Of Your Mind, Five Up Even The Idea Of Becoming A Buddha.

Through One Word, Or Seven Words, Or Three Times Five, Even If You Investigate Thoroughly Myriad Forms, Nothing Can Be Depended Upon. Night Advances, The Moon Glows And Falls Into The Ocean. The Black Dragon Jewel You Have Been Searching For, Is Everywhere.

Continuous Practice, Day After Day, Is The Most Appropriate Way Of Expressing Gratitude. This Means That You Practice Continuously, Without Wasting A Single Day Of Your Life, Without Using It For Your Own Sake. Why Is It So? Your Life Is A Fortunate Outcome Of The Continuous Practice Of The Past. You Should Express Your Gratitude Immediately.

There Are Myriads Of Forms And Hundreds Of Grasses Throughout The Entire Earth, Yet Each Grass And Each Form Itself Is The Entire Earth.
