Nansen's Ordinary Mind

[Guest guest]

Joshu asked Nansen, " what's the Way? "

 

Nansen, " Ordinary mind "

 

Josho, " Where can it be found? "

 

Nansen, The more you chase it, the faster it runs. "

 

Joshu, " Then, how can it be known as the Way? "

 

Nansen, " The way is not about knowing or not knowing.

Knowing is an illusion, not knowing is lack of discrimination.

When you get to this unperplexed Way, it is like the

vastness of space, and unfathomable void, so how can

it be this, or that, yes or no? "

 

Hearing this Josho realized.

This is the only practice.

And it is not anything.

For void is mind itself, and mind itself are void.
