Huazhi Rinpoche said: "All beings are impermanent and will perish; All storage is impermanent and will be exhausted; All gathering and dispersion are impermanent and will disperse; All construction is impermanent and will collapse; Everything that rises is impermanent and will inevitably fall. So enemies and friends, happiness and misfortune, kindness and evil, the thoughts in their hearts are always changing. " Since everything in reincarnation is impermanent, what else is worth pursuing except liberation? The following are 85 Zen sayings that I searched and sorted out. If you are interested, let's have a look at them.

1. If everyone can save and cherish happiness, poverty will not exist.

2. If you can't see it, just carry it. If you can't let go, just remember. I can't bear it, just keep it. One day ... my back can't move, so I will relax. I can't remember clearly, so I put it down. If you can't stay, you are willing to give up. So don't take some things too seriously. Turn a blind eye and it will pass. Cherish the people in front of you and do the things in front of you. Everything is wonderful.

3, don't like noise, like quiet people, guarding their own peace. Play a pure light music, make a cup of fragrant tea and write a few lines of your favorite words. Perhaps it is the seed left by Zen forest, and it is born with a deep heart.

34. Although we have gained a lot of leisure, if we can't get the guidance, urging and holding of good knowledge in the long journey of life, we can only flow involuntarily in the sea of reincarnation, suffering from the powerful karma and bad habits of the past. Therefore, it is very important to stick to and approach virtue and good knowledge.
