When the mind is in delusion,
the Flower of Dharma turns.
When the mind is in realization,
we turn the Flower of Dharma.
Unless we are clear about ourselves,
however long we recite,
it will become an enemy because of its meanings.
Without intention the mind is right.
With intention the mind becomes wrong.
When we transcend both with and without,
we ride eternally in the white ox cart.
Dogen Zenji
