True Nature Recites Sutra

Your true nature should recite sutra. Big mind recites, not small mind. Small self should not recite sutra. The self which is universal to everyone should recite sutra with people.

Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture 65-07-28-D as found on shunryusuzuki.com -  - Excerpt edited by DC
