While I walk the streets, my soul yearns for the mountain monastaries.

  • "The more I look up at it, the higher it seems; the more I delve into it, the harder it become. Catching a glimpse of it before me, I then find it suddenly at my back.
    The master is skilled at leading me on, step by step. He broadens me with culture and restrains me with the rites, so that even if I wanted to give up, I could not. Having exhausted all of my strength, it seems as if there is something left, looming up ahead of me. Though I desire to follow, there seems to be no way through."
