He who controls others may be powerful,
but he who has mastered himself
is mightier still.

Was der Vergleich vielmehr beweist, das ist nicht der Einfluss eines Denksystems auf ein anderes, sondern der Zusammenhang der metaphysischen Überlieferung der ganzen Welt und aller Zeiten.[...]

Melodrama
![]() |
| source |
Han Shan spits out these words,
words no one believes ...
Honey's sweet, so people love it,
But the best herbs are bitter, hard to get down.
Go along, and they'll all love you.
Oppose them, and you'll get a big-eyed stare.
All I see is wooden puppets,
playing out their melodrama.
Han Shan Cold Mountain | Translated by J.P. Seaton

Water does not think ...
To each thing, its own
true deepest inner nature:water does not think
of itself as consort
of the bright moonlight it hosts.

How long does it take?
A young man went to see a Zen master. 'Master, how long will it take until I have attained liberation?'
'Maybe ten years' replied the master.
'And if I am particularly make an effort, how long does it take?', Asked the students.
'In that case, it may be twenty Jahre "replied the master.
'But I take really any hardship on me. I want to go as quickly as possible to your destination ', protested the young man.
'Then,' replied the master, 'it may take up to forty years.'
