Do you realise that when you give a schilling to a beggar you are giving it to yourself?Do you realise that when you help a dog over a stile you yourself are being helped?Do you realise when you kick a man when he is down, you are kicking yourslef?Give him another kick, you deserve it!

Wei Wu Wei
We imagine that waking-life is real and that dream-life is unreal, but there does not seem to be any evidence for this belief.
Wei Wu Wei
Transcendence implies the surpassing of two things, and the consequent attainment of a third thing. But there are no 'things' in reality, of any kind whatever: there is only the thing-in-itself, its suchness, which is Reality, revealed when the illusory dualism of inexistent qualities is dissolved.
Wei Wu Wei
THIS which is seeking is THAT which is sought, and THAT which is sought is THIS which is seeking.
Wei Wu Wei
As long as one accepts time tacitly as such he is dreaming a dream, not living a life.
Wei Wu Wei
Reintegration with Nature, which we are, is the recovery of spontaneity.
Wei Wu Wei
It is only with total humility, and in absolute stillness of mind that we can know what indeed we are.
