Master Rinzai's medicine for anxiety
Gateway Talks
What is our true nature and how can we come to realise it?
Followers of the Way, the Dharma of the heart has no form and pervades the Ten Directions. In the eye, it is called seeing; in the ear, hearing; in the nose, smelling; in the mouth, talking; in the hands, grasping; in the feet, walking.
Fundamentally, it is one light; differentiated , it becomes the six senses. When one’s whole heart comes to a full stop, one is delivered where one stands. Why do I speak thus? It is only because I see you, followers of the Way. All running about with an agitated heart, quite unable to stop, fretting yourselves over the playing’s of the old masters.
(The Zen Teachings of Rinzai tr. Irmgard Schloegl. Pub. Shambhala 1976)
