98.6

The song of Venerable Tengteng says: / In cultivating the Way, there is no Way to cultivate; / In inquiring of the Dharma, there is no Dharma to inquire of. / The deluded do not awaken to non-emptiness; / For the realized, there is fundamentally neither adversity nor favor. / The eighty-four thousand Dharma-gates— / Their ultimate principle does not exceed the square inch [of the mind]. / Kleśa is precisely bodhi; / Pure flowers grow from mud and dung. / Recognize your own city and township; / Do not falsely wander into other provinces and commanderies.
