Sutra teachings rely on words such as these three names (mind, Buddha, sentient being) to express the one thing. Zen meditation teaches that you must not become attached to any words or speech.
Picking it up or putting it down. Creating or destroying. These are the actions of a Free Person who is without any hindrance.
The selection above demonstrates how Buddhas and Patriarchs have freely used myriad expedient means to convey their teachings.
- So Sahn (1520-1604)
