This inconceivable door of great liberation is in everyone. It has never been blocked, it has never been defective. Buddhas and Zen masters have appeared in the world and provided expedient methods, with many different devices, using illusory medicines to cure illusory illnesses, just because your faculties are unequal, your knowledge is unclear, you do not transcend what you see and hear as you see and hear it, and you are tumbled about endlessly in an ocean of misery by afflictions due to ignorance, by emotional views and habitual conceptions of others and self, right and wrong.
The various teachings and techniques of buddhas and Zen masters are only set forth so that you will individually step bck into yourself, understand your own original mind and see your own original nature, so that you reach a state of great rest, peace and happiness.
