Taken from five different Chinese works by Venerable Xiao Pingshi, the selected passages in this book provide Western readers with distinctive samples of Master Xiao's incisive and illuminating views on subjects that are quite relevant, yet often overlooked, by today's Buddhist learners: 1. a powerful Dharma-door of Buddha-mindfulness that can be practiced anytime anywhere; 2. the proper steps and sequence of Dharma cultivation one should follow after achieving awakening to the True Mind; 3. the inviolable rule that the personal realization of the essence of Buddhist enlightenment should never deviate from Buddha's sacred teachings; 4. the deviation of Tibetan Lamaism's doctrines and practices from those of the Buddha Dharma; 5. and lastly, the pervasive misunderstanding regarding the content of Chan awakening.
