"These days there's a kind of phony whose own standpoint is not genuine: they just teach people to control their minds and sit quietly, to sit to the point where the breath ceases. I call this lot pitiable. I'm asking you to meditate in just this way, but though I instruct you like this, it's just that there is no other choice." ~Dahui Zonggao, Swampland Flowers
Either this old man fooled us or we fooled ourselves! How could he say "I call this lot pitiable", and then instruct like this?
