‘In your seeing there

should be only seeing;

in your hearing

nothing but hearing;

in your smelling,

tasting,

touching,

nothing but smelling,

tasting,

touching;

in your cognizing,

nothing but cognizing.’

GATEWAY GEOMETRIES TO THE UNIVERSE

‘The great way has no gate,

There are a thousand different roads.

If you pass through this barrier once,

You will walk independently in the universe.’

THE GATELESS GATE, KOUN YAMADA 

‘Our perception of the world outside

and of the world inside within is distorted

and blurred by our past conditioning,

our preferences and prejudices. (…)

So long as we are preoccupied with our wants and fears,

our identities,

we are confined within the narrow prison of the self,

cut off from the world,

from life.’
