Text Quotes
The true person is Not anyone in particular; But like the deep blue color Of the limitless sky, It is everyone, Everywhere in the world.  (Dogen Quotes) Do not practice buddha-dharma with the thought that it is to benefit others  (Dogen Quotes) There are thousands upon thousands of students who have practiced meditation and obtained its fruits. Do not doubt its possibilities because of the simplicity of the method. If you can not find the truth right where you are, where else do you expect to find it?  (Dogen Quotes) To study the Way is to study the self. To study the self is to forget the self  (Dogen Quotes) When mountains and waters are painted, blue, green, and red paints are used, strange rocks and wondrous stones are used, the four jewels and the seven treasures are used. Rice-cakes are painted in the same manner. When a person is painted, the four great elements and five skandhas are used  (Dogen Quotes) Refraining from all evil, not clinging to birth and death, working in deep compassion for all sentient beings, respecting those over you and pitying those below you, without any detesting or desiring, worrying or lamentation - this is what is called Buddha. Do not search beyond it  (Dogen Quotes) You should stop searching for phrases and chasing after words. Take the backward step and turn the light inward. Your body-mind of itself will drop off and your original face will appear. If you want to attain just this, immediately practice just this  (Dogen Quotes) Meditation is not a way to enlightenment, Nor is it a method of achieving anything at all. It is peace itself. It is the actualization of wisdom, The ultimate truth of the oneness of all things  (Dogen Quotes) Your body is like a dew-drop on the morning grass, your life is as brief as a flash of lightning. Momentary and vain, it is lost in a moment  (Dogen Quotes) Something you want badly enough can always be gained. No matter how fierce the enemy, how remote the beautiful lady, or how carefully guarded the treasure, there is always a means to the goal for the earnest seeker. The unseen help of the guardian gods of heaven and earth assure fulfillment  (Dogen Quotes) Zazen is the ultimate practice. This is indeed the True Self. The Buddhadharma is not to be sought outside of this  (Dogen Quotes) Cease from practice based on intellectual understanding, pursuing words, and following after speech  (Dogen Quotes) Do not be amazed by the true dragon  (Dogen Quotes) One must be deeply aware of the impermanence of the world  (Dogen Quotes) Understand clearly that when a great need appears a great use appears also; when there is small need there is small use; it is obvious, then, that full use is made of all things at all times according to the necessity thereof  (Dogen Quotes) Does a dragon still sing from within a withered tree?  (Dogen Quotes) The whole moon and the entire sky are reflected in one dewdrop on the grass  (Dogen Quotes) Sitting is the gateway of truth to total liberation  (Dogen Quotes) What is reality? An icicle forming in fire  (Dogen Quotes) When you find your place where you are, practice occurs, actualizing the fundamental point  (Dogen Quotes) If you do not get it from yourself, where will you go for it?  (Dogen Quotes) In a mind clear as still water, even the waves, breaking, are reflecting its light  (Dogen Quotes) Do not view mountains from the scale of human thought  (Dogen Quotes) Inside the treasury of the dharma eye a single grain of dust  (Dogen Quotes) Enlightenment is intimacy with all things  (Dogen Quotes) Do no harmful actions, do not become attached to the cycle of death and rebirth, show kindness, respect the old and have compassion for the young, do not have a heart that rejects or a heart that covets and have no worry or sadness in your heart. This is what is called enlightenment. Do not seek it elsewhere  (Dogen Quotes) Those who seek the easy way do not seek the true way  (Dogen Quotes) In the mundane, nothing is sacred. In sacredness, nothing is mundane  (Dogen Quotes) Forgetting oneself is opening oneself  (Dogen Quotes) Nothing in the entire universe is hidden  (Dogen Quotes)
