“Instruments such as the television,
radar, the radio, the telephone and the telegraph also have the functions of
the penetrations of the heavenly eye and the heavenly ear, but those are manmade
spiritual penetrations, not natural ones.
The spiritual penetrations gained
through Chan meditation are effortless and carefree in their functioning.
All you have to do is want to and you
can obtain such states through cultivation.”

“KINDNESS, COMPASSION, JOY and GIVING are the
basis of cultivation.
One can never have enough of the qualities of KINDNESS,
COMPASSION, JOY and GIVING- the more the better.
KINDNESS makes others HAPPY.
COMPASSION eradicates SUFFERING.
JOY refers to a happy state of MIND.
GIVING involves wanting to make living beings
happy, to alleviate their suffering and to help those in need.”
