Mind the Gap

“Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Way out in the water, see it swimming.” – The Pixies

“You ask. That’s your mind. I answer. That’s my mind. If I had no mind, how could I answer? If you had no mind, how could you ask? That which asks is your mind. Through endless kalpas without beginning, whatever you do, wherever you are, that’s your real mind, that’s your real buddha.... To search for enlightenment or nirvana beyond this mind is impossible.... Your mind is nirvana.” – Bodhidharma

“And remember, no matter where you go, there you are” – Confucius

“Come as you are / as you were / as I want you to be / as a friend / as a friend / as an old enemy” – Nirvana

“I was basically trying to rip off The Pixies” – Kurt Cobain
