Quotes by Omori Sogen (?)

“The eternity of "anytime" shines in this moment "now" while the unlimitedness of "anyplace" is manifested in the limits of "here." When the universality of "anyone" dances out in the individual "I," for the first time you have the world of Zen.”
― Omori Sogen, An Introduction to Zen Training

“The act of correctly seeing this world from this state of concentration (jyo) and the world of samadhi is called “wisdom.” In other words, wisdom is the act of perceiving things of this world as they truly are.”

“In the distinguished book Zazen no Shokei by the lay Zen Master Kawajiri Hogin, he writes, “Because zazen is training to realize the One Mind of yourself, it is a mistake to set up an aim outside of yourself … Not setting up an aim is the true aim.”
