Do not cling to outside objects

Nor cling to emptiness inside.

When you insist that things are real

you miss their true reality.

When you

insist that things are unreal

you also miss their true reality.

 

When you attempt to stop your mind's movements

you will find more movements

of it.

Just let

your mind be calm and clear itself,

then your perverted views by themselves

will go.

 

The more you talk and think of this

the further you are from the

truth.

When useless thoughts and words are cut off,

there will be nowhere

you cannot go through.

 

(Seng Ts'an)
