황벽과 임제4부작 중 3부

Since the Three Realms have been created already, we must eliminate them ourselves. But with what? They can only be eliminated by our own consciousness and understanding, with the power of realization and enlightenment. Destroying them doesn’t mean incinerate them or barbecue them with fire. No. It’s just an inner realization that originally, the Three Realms don’t exist and have no attraction. Whether they exist or not doesn’t matter so long as they have no temptation to us. Understand? It’s like sometimes when we were watching television, but our mind was occupied with other things. We were there watching television, but we didn’t know what the programs were all about.
