The victorious ones have said that emptiness is the relinquishing of all views. Those who are possessed of the view of emptiness are said to be incurable.

Just as the wise do not take a mirage to be water, nor an echo to be a voice, so the enlightened do not take the world to be real.

The person who clings to nothing of the past, present and future, who has no attachment and no aversion, has no conceptual imprints.

Neither from itself nor from another, nor from both, nor without a cause, does anything whatever, anywhere arise.

If I had any position, I would thereby have a flaw. But since I have no position, I alone am without flaw.

There is no difference at all between samsara and nirvana. There is no difference at all between nirvana and samsara.

Whatever is dependently co-arisen, that is explained to be emptiness. That, being a dependent designation, is itself the middle way.

Those who grasp at things as truly existent are like someone trying to catch the reflection of the moon in water.

Those who understand interdependent origination understand suffering, its origin, its cessation, and the path.

Those who know emptiness, know impermanence. Those who know impermanence, know non-self. Those who know non-self, know peace.

The one who grasps at existence suffers in samsara, while the one who grasps at non-existence will find no liberation.

Like a dream, like an illusion, like a city of gandharvas, that's how birth, and that's how living, that's how dying are taught to be.

Although all phenomena are empty of inherent existence, they function perfectly well.

The highest truth cannot be taught except through the conventional truth.

Since all things are empty of inherent existence, anything is possible. If things had inherent existence, nothing would be possible.

To see the truth, do not be for or against. The struggle between for and against is the mind's worst disease.

When you realize the emptiness of all phenomena, compassion will arise in your heart for all sentient beings who do not understand this truth.

Through understanding emptiness, one does not become proud of one's virtues, just as one does not become proud of building a castle in the sky.

The root of all suffering is ignorance. The antidote to ignorance is wisdom that realizes emptiness.

Things derive their being and nature by mutual dependence and are nothing in themselves.
