No dharma has root; therefore, it is created on its own.
If only we could illuminate the un-created dharma,
Clearly there would be no pointless struggle on the path towards enlightenment.
Why toil desperately where no toil is needed?
Struggling forlornly and noisily
Is like pouring water into mud in hopes of purifying it.
Fenyang once said, "Do not be deluded."
Simply let it be, and ask about the path no more.
- By Ven. Jingak Hyesim
