Fudamitta
The ninth patriarch was the Venerable
Buddhamitra. He heard
Buddhanandi say:
Your speech is one with your intrinsic Mind,
And not even your mother and father can compare [in closeness]. Your
actions are one with the Way,
And this is what the Mind of Buddhas is.
If you search externally for a Buddha with form,
He will not resemble you.
If you want to know your intrinsic Mind, You are neither one with
it nor separate.
The master [upon hearing this] was greatly awakened.
