No Objective World Anymore

You are a part of me, you know. If we reach this kind of understanding when practicing zazen, you have no “you” and no “others”; your practice includes everything. Everything will take place within yourself. So, there is no objective world anymore. So, without trying to help others, you will help others anyway. That is Sambhogakaya Buddha.
