The Dharma is the truth that all natures are pure.
Bodhidharma
You can't know your real mind as long as you deceive yourself.
Bodhidharma

Bodhidharma
Life and death are important. Don't suffer them in vain.

Bodhidharma
To seek is to suffer. To seek nothing is bliss.
Bodhidharma
If you see your nature, you don't need to read sutras or invoke buddhas. Erudition and knowledge are not only useless but also cloud your awareness. Doctrines are only for pointing to the mind. Once you see your mind, why pay attention to doctrines?
Bodhidharma
Whoever knows that the mind is a fiction and devoid of anything real knows that his own mind neither exists nor doesn't exist.
