If you know that everything comes from the mind, don't become attached. Once attached, you're unaware. But once you see your own nature, the entire Canon becomes so much prose. It's thousands of sutras and shastras only amount to a clear mind. Understanding comes in mid sentence. What good are doctrines? The ultimate Truth is beyond words. Doctrines are words. They're not the Path. The Path is wordless. Words are illusions. . . . Don't cling to appearances, and you'll break through all barriers. . . .
