Biography
Quotes
- Too lazy to be ambitious,I let the world take care of itself.Ten days' worth of rice in my bag;a bundle of twigs by the fireplace.Why chatter about delusion and enlightenment?Listening to the night rain on my roof,I sit comfortably, with both legs stretched out.
- Why do you so earnestly seek the truth in distant places?Look for delusion and truth in thebottom of your own heart.
