Rinzai Gigen quote

"The master said: A moment of doubt in your heart is your being obstructed by earth;
a moment of desire in your heart is your
drowning in water;
a moment of anger in your heart is your
burning in fire;
a moment of joy in your heart is your being
carried away by the wind. If you can realize this, you will no
longer be at the mercy of circumstance but will make use of
circumstances wherever you are — rise in the east and set in the west, appear in the south and vanish in the north, rise in the middle and disappear at the circumference, appear at the circumference and vanish in the center. Then you (will) walk on water as if it were land and on land as if it were water.
How comes that this is so? Because you have come to understand that the four elements are like a dream, or a phantom."
