All Things Are the Essence of Mind
He [the Patriarch] asked me to come and see him late in the night where upon he expounded the Diamond Sutra to me. When he came to the sentence, "One should use one's mind in such a way that it will be free from any attachment," I at once became enlightened, and realized that all things in the universe are the 'Essence of Mind' itself.
