Seeking the mind with the mind, - is not this the greatest of all mistakes?"Clinging to the search for the mind is the last infirmity of the religious soul, and the most self-evidently absurd, for why should we search for the Buddha that we have already, why seek to release ourselves from bonds that are only fancied? But it is the greediness of our searching which invalidates it."
This is beautifully expressed in the following:
There is a treasure in the deep mountains;
He who has no desire for it finds it.
~~ R. H. Blyth
