Do not view mountains from the scale of human thought.
Mountains and oceans have whole worlds of innumerable wondrous features. We should understand that it is not only our distant surroundings that are like this, but even what is right here, even a single drop of water.
An ancient buddha said, “Mountains are mountains; waters are waters.” These words do not mean mountains are mountains; they mean mountains are mountains.
There are mountains hidden in mountains. There are mountains hidden in hiddenness. This is complete understanding.
There are those who, attracted by grass, flowers, mountains, and waters, flow into the Buddha Way.
Mountains and rivers at this very moment are the actualization of the world of the ancient Buddhas. Each, abiding in its phenomenal expression, realizes completeness.
Because mountains are high and broad, the way of riding the clouds is always reached in the mountains; the inconceivable power of soaring in the wind comes freely from the mountains
Do not doubt that mountains walk simply because they may not appear to walk like humans.
