Accord Quote by Anonymous

“When Zen masters say 'effortlessness' they are referring to the state when your enlightenment is well rooted. Now there is no need of any effort; now you can be relaxed and at ease, it will grow on its own accord. It will bring much foliage, and many flowers, and many blessings.” quote by Anonymous
