Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Master Tánluán (476–554 CE)
With light's cloud unobstructed like space, / thus is the Buddha also named Unobstructed Light. / As all with obstacles can receive his light's luster, / therefore prostrate to the difficult-to-conceive one. — Master Tánluán (476–554 CE)

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Matthieu Ricard
We are very much like birds that have lived too long in a cage to which we return even when we get the chance to fly away. We have grown so accustomed to our faults that we can barely imagine what life would be like without them. The prospect of change makes us dizzy. ― Matthieu Ricard

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Seung Sahn (1927–2004)
When you are able to stay perfectly clear by cutting off all thinking and yet not falling into a trance-like sleep, this is sitting. When inside and outside become one, and no circumstances can hinder you, this is Zen. — Seung Sahn (1927–2004)
