    Zen is the only way of seeing the truth without any
    belief. If you have a belief already, your belief will
    become the barrier. One has to be utterly belief-
    less.

    I am not saying that you have to be a DISbeliever;
    that is again a belief. Believing or disbelieving,
    both are belief systems. Theist and atheist are
    both two extremes of one concept, of one
    hypothesis. One is saying yes, the other is saying
    no, but both of them are absolutely unaware of the
    truth.

    That truth cannot be denied, and no evidence can
    be given, or proof. One has to live it; only life is a
    proof. When somebody has reached to the point
    where he is truth, obviously all his actions are
    bound to change. All his life patterns are going to
    be different.

    Rinzai is right that he can see the moment
    somebody enters into his temple in what space he
    is, what are his ropes: Has he any direction in life
    or is he just going haphazardly like dead wood
    floating in a river? Has he any consciousness that
    each moment he is missing the significance and
    meaning of life or is he just sleepy, keeping himself
    occupied so that the question, the ultimate
    question does not arise...?
