No place can be found in which to put the Original Face; it will not disappear even when the universe is destroyed. •Mumon  Learning Zen is a phenomenon of gold and dung. Before you understand it, it's like gold; after you understand it, it's like dung. •Zen Saying  No thought, no reflection, no analysis, no cultivation, no intention; let it settle itself. •Tilopa   When you pass through, no one can pin you down, no one can call you back. •Ying-An   There are no mundane things outside of Buddhism, and there is no Buddhism outside of mundane things. •Yuan-Wu  The only Zen you find on the tops of mountains is the Zen you bring up there. •Robert M.
