Daily Zen Quote - Jan. 17, 2013


Calm is the lamp and insight is the light. In all action, walking or resting, sitting or sleeping, always act with a straightforward heart: that is the samadhi of one-mindedness. And in all places and all times, always act with intelligence: that is the prajna-paramita. Sitting motionless is no dhyana; introspection of your own mind is no dhyana; and looking inward at your own calmness is no dyhana.
~Hui-Neng, the Sixth Patriarch of Zen
