  • Sit up

    I lie at peace in moonlight.
    Or, hearing water plashing on the rock,
    Sit up.

    – Ryushu Shutaku (1308–1388)

  • Empty truth

    The substance of a sage
    Is nameless and cannot be spoken of;
    The empty door of truth as it really is
    Cannot be tarried in.

    – Pai-chang (720–814)
