Leave all your passion. Forget children's fun. Turn into pieces of immaculate clay. Let eternity be your only thought. Become a likeness of cold and lifeless ashes or old podlampadnik over an abandoned grave.
Having a simple faith in it, exercise your body and mind accordingly, turning them into life-deprived pieces of stone or wood. When the state of complete immobility and unconsciousness is reached, all signs of life will disappear, but with them all restrictions will disappear. No thought will disturb your mind. And suddenly - lo and behold! - absolutely unexpectedly, a divine light will shine upon you This can be compared to a ray of light in the utter darkness or a treasure found by the poor. Four elements and five guides will cease to be a heavy burden for you. You will be free and easy. Your whole being will lose all limitations. You will feel free, light and transparent. Your enlightened mind will penetrate into the very nature of things, which will henceforth become for you a likeness of many fabulous colors, airy and intangible. This is how our simple "I" manifests itself, our true primordial nature, in all its amazing, beautiful nudity.
There is only one straight and unobstructed road before us. And all this is achieved when we renounce everything: the body, life, and all that belongs to our inner nature.
It is here that we find peace, tranquility, poise and ineffable joy.
Sekiso Keise (807-888) - Zen master of the Tan period.
