A Trip to Mount Jiuhua: May All Things Go Smoothly

“Bodhisattva, how can one achieve success and have everything go smoothly?”

“Do not cling to the notion of ‘I attain.’”

Fame and success, everything going well, are never gifts from heaven.

Those who can let go of the small self,

treat adversity as opportunity, and foresee crisis in smooth times,

can truly grasp the way of achieving things.
