Which mind neither eliminates delusions nor seeks truth?

Chan Master Yongjia said: 不除妄想不求真。This is spoken from the perspective of the true mind, meaning that true suchness (tathatā) has no deluded thoughts, and therefore one need not remove deluded thoughts; true suchness itself does not practice, does not cultivate precepts, meditative concentration (samādhi), and wisdom, does not seek to see the mind and realize its nature, and does not wish to become a Buddha; therefore He has no desire to attain realization. Master Yongjia was a deeply wise person who had attained the Way, and thus he was able to directly realize the nature of the true mind, and what he expounded were all truths concerning the mind of ultimate reality (dharmatā-citta). Those who have not awakened will speak from the perspective of the perceiving mind, the conscious mind; everything they say pertains to conditioned, arising-and-ceasing phenomena, illusory dharmas, and does not touch upon the ultimate truth (paramārtha-satya). Between those who possess the Way and those who do not, their wisdom often differs as greatly as heaven from an abyss. As for the nature of our deluded mind consciousness, after studying Buddhism and practicing, we are always pondering: how do we remove deluded thoughts and scattered notions? How do we make the mind pure? How do we avoid greed, hatred, and delusion? How can we realize the true mind and find our self-nature? But the true mind never thinks about these matters. Nor does He think about how to attain liberation, how to become a Buddha, how to keep the precepts, or how to cultivate concentration and wisdom. The true mind does not consider these things; these matters have nothing to do with Him, because He is beyond birth and death—therefore the true mind does not practice.

Verse by Layman Pang: 心如境也如，无实也无虚。有也不管，无也不居，不是贤圣。了事凡夫易复易，即此五蕴有真智。十方世界一乘同，无相法身岂有二？若舍烦恼入菩提，不知何方有佛地。
