Some activity which covers everything is true
activity and the secret of this activity is transmitted from
Buddha to us. The Zen school is not some teaching taught by him and not rules
of life which were set up by Buddha. The teaching and the rules should be
changed according to the country, according to the place, and according to the
people who observe it, but this secret of the practice cannot be changed.----------Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture 66-06-23 as found on shunryusuzuki.com.
