To find The Way, to discover the Path there is one sure method---cease from making judgments. Yet, how hard it is. It is what we do, what we have learned. Nothing comes as easy as being for or against. But, this is where all our suffering begins; this making judgments. I know that despite my best efforts I still do. I have to constantly remind myself of these words from Master Sheng-yen from his verses, "Faith in Mind":
If you want the Way to appear
Be neither for nor against
For and against opposing each other
This is the mind's disease
