The Mind of Zen

The Mind of ZenWhen it comes to matters of Spirit, and the innate Mind animating its will; Great minds discuss ideas around its true nature, relying solely on the light of its absolute reality as origin of their wisdom.

Average minds discuss events around its illusory appearances; and finally –  Small minds discuss people who like them are caught in its created maelstrom of birth and death.

If you cannot understand this, or much less accept it, know then that where there is no division [of Mind], there is enlightenment [of said Mind] and where there is division [of Mind], there is ignorance [of said Mind].
