No-one passes by

No one passes by
The only ones who visit
Are the drifting clouds.

- Han-shan Te-ch’ing (1546-1623)

Release the mind

If you cling to emptiness and linger
In quiescence, you will bob and sink

Therefore the wise release the mind
To be independent and free.

– Fu Shan-hui (487-659)
