BankeiIf, wishing to realize the Unborn, you people try to stop your thoughts from arising, then by stopping them you divide one mind into two. It’s as if you were pursuing something that’s running away. As long as you deliberately try to stop your thoughts, the thought of trying to stop them wars against the continually arising thoughts themselves, and there’s never an end to it. Just don’t bother with them, and then there’s nothing else they can do but stop. When there’s no one there to fight with, things can’t help but simply come to an end of themselves. – Bankei
