Let Zen Settle It for You!

Huike: "I have a restless mind and beg Master to settle it for me."

Bodhidharma: "Bring me your mind and I will settle it for you."

Huike (after searching for his mind): "Well, I can not find it."

Bodhidharma: "There, I have already settled it."

Being enlightened, not being enlightened, zen, not zen, zen is Buddhism, zen is not Buddhism, secular, religious, cultivation, no cultivation, practice, no practice...

Where is this all coming from?

Ha! You’ve been fooled by your own contrivance!

Someone asked, "Master, where is your mind focused?"

Joshu said, "Where there is no design."
