Wonhyo Frasi e Citazioni

“Tutti gli uomini sanno come soddisfare la loro fame con il cibo ma pochi hanno la saggezza di imparare il dharma come cura per l'ignoranza.”

Origine: Citato in Jordan, p. 82.

“Tutti i buddha dimorano nel Palazzo dell'Estinzione. Lì hanno abbandonato il desiderio e sopportato molte difficoltà. Gli esseri senzienti in miriadi di mondi sopportano l'incessante rinascita; sono intrappolati dentro la dimora del bruciare perché non abbandonano né il desiderio né la lussuria.”

Origine: Citato in Jordan, p. 61.

Wonhyo: Frasi in inglese

“The mind of sentient beings as it is in itself has neither marks nor nature. It is like the ocean, like space. Since it is like space, there are no marks that are not subsumed within it. How could it contain a direction such as east or west? Since it is like the ocean, there is no nature that is preserved.”

佛說阿彌陀經疏 Bulseol Amitagyeong so (prolegomenon to the Commentary on the Amitabha Sutra Spoken by the Buddha)
Translated by A. Charles Muller

“Now, in the unhindered and unobstructed dharma-opening of the dharma-realm there is no dharma, and yet no non-dharma; no opening, and yet no non-opening. Thus it is neither large nor small, neither in a hurry nor taking its time; neither moving nor still, neither one nor many. Since it its not large, it can become an atom, leaving nothing behind. Since it is not small, it can contain all of space with room left over. Unhurried, it can include all the kalpas in the three time periods; not taking its time, it can enter fully into an instant.”
