The Self that is Life, the Life that is Self

The triple world is only the one mind,

There is nothing else outside of the mind.

The mind, buddha, and living beings—

The three are without distinction.

Shobogenzo, Sangai-yuishin, Gudo Nishijima & Mike Cross

 

What has been described like this is that life is the self, and the self is life.

Shobogenzo, Zenki, Gudo Nishijima & Mike Cross
