The art of wealth-getting which consists in household management, on the one hand, has a limit; the unlimited acquisition of wealth is not its business. And therefore, in one point of view, all riches must have a limit; nevertheless, as a matter of fact, we find the opposite to be the case; for all getters of wealth increase their hard coin without limit.
Zen purposes to discipline the mind itself, to make it its own master, through an insight into its proper nature.

The discipline of Zen consists in opening the mental eye in order to look into the very reason of existence.

There is no need to sustain or confirm a sense of being: I simply am.
We may not say to the poor: "You have a right to fight the rich merely because they are rich and in order to make yourselves less poor."
