• Zen is the enemy of analysis, the friend of intuition. The Zen artist understands the ends of his art intuitively, and the last thing he would do is create categories; the avowed purpose of Zen is to eliminate categories! The true Zen-man holds to the old Taoist proverb,
  Those who know do not speak. Those who speak do not know.

• El Zen adopta la postura contraria: sostiene que la verdadera realidad es la unidad fundamental de mente y materia, espíritu interior y mundo exterior. Cuando la vida se ve en estos términos, no puede haber éxito o fracaso, felicidad o infelicidad; la vida es un todo, y tú eres simplemente parte de él. No hay dualidades, por lo tanto no hay nada de qué preocuparse. El resultado es una tranquilidad perfecta.
