Huangpo and Linji, Part 2 of 4 January 19, 1992

Sometimes parents, relatives, friends, husband or wife are all only enemies. They drag you down. Otherwise, originally, we didn’t have parents, husband, wife. We have only one parent, and that is God, the Supreme Master, the inner Supreme Master, our own highest power. That is our parent. I’m not asking you to leave your parents, no. Actually, I’ve never asked you to leave your parents or family, have I? I only teach you to let go of the inner attachment, for it’s the inside that’s important.
