That which you do, you are. That which you are, you see. In that which you see, you see clearly. 那你做什么，你是。这里面你，你看。在这里面，你看，你看得很清楚。 Anata ga okonau koto o suru, anata ga shite imasu. Anata ga shite iru koto o suru, anata o sanshō shite kudasai. Anata ga miru koto suru ni wa, hakkiri to hyōji sa remasu.

chop wood, carry water. Images of broken light,
Which dance before me like a million eyes,
They call me on and on...

Sozan, a Chinese Zen master, was asked by a student: "what is the most valuable thing in the world?"
The master replied: "The head of a dead cat."
"Why is the head of a dead cat the most valuable thing in the world?" inquired the student.
Sozan replied: "Because no one can name its price."

Zen is a lie. That lie is the truth. No matter what you've done, you deserve respect. Even if you make mistakes, you're lovable.
And it doesn’t matter - your looks, skills, age, your size, or anything.
You’re worthwhile. No one can ever take that away from you.

"If you want to understand who made God, here is a hint: Saying “God” is already a big mistake. If you open your mouth, primary cause appears. If you keep it shut, then primary cause disappears. It is very easy to see. Don’t make God. Don’t make Buddha. From moment to moment, don’t make anything." - Zen Master Seung Sahn

I think, therefore I am. "Laws alone can not secure freedom of expression; in order that every man present his views without penalty there must be a spirit of tolerance in the entire population." -Albert Einstein
I'm not a big fan of SWIM. I mean, I've never met the guy, but any time I hear about him, he's doing something sketchy.
