Excerpt
Excerpt: If you want to find the Buddha, look at your own toes, look at your hands. Whose hands are these? Whose weariness is this? Whose heat is this? Whose sound is this? Who stretches from one side of the world to the other? If you want to find the Buddha, look at your own face, look at your shoulders, your hips, your legs. If you really look at this, you will find that everything is already here. There is no need to go searching around. Everything is clear and everything has always been clear, and you have always known it. From the beginning there is no need for any effort or any struggle. You just have to become one with the Tao right where you stand. Someone asked Matsu, How do I accord with the Tao? He said, I haven't accorded with the Tao since the beginning of my training. Right where you are that's where the Tao is. Right where your heart is that's where it flows from.
