Mud and Water - Bassui (1327-1387)

 

The way of Zen began without the establishment of any sect.  It is simply a religion which points to the one original mind of all Buddhas and ordinary people.  This mind is nothing other than Buddha nature.  To see this nature is what is meant by religious practice.  When you realize your Buddha nature, wrong relationships will instantly disappear, words will be of no concern, and the dust of the dharma will not stain you.  This is what is called Zen.  Attaining Zen is becoming a Buddha.  This real Buddha is none other than the heart of all beings, the master of seeing, hearing, and perceiving.
