The Great Way PDF Print E-mail

The Great Way is not difficult
 for those who have no preferences.

When love and hate are both absent
 everything becomes clear and undisguised.

Make the smallest distinction, however,
 and heaven and earth are set infinitely apart.

If you wish to see the truth
 then hold no opinions for or against anything.

To set up what you like against what you dislike
 is the disease of the mind.

When the deep meaning of things is not understood
 the mind's essential peace is disturbed to no avail.
