Suzuki Roshi Told Me To Stop My Mind

"During zazen we stop our mind. We do not put any consideration into our sensitivity or thinking. Whatever image comes, we just accept it and let it go. And whatever sound we hear, we let it come in and let it go out. When you do not pay any attention to an outward object, you will find out your true nature."

Suzuki Roshi Said This Is Anger

"When we are ignorant of our true nature, we become angry.  This is want of subtle understanding. That is anger."
