"The Dharma is like money. It is up to the individual to use it wisely. To those with money， many courses of action are open. If you can concentrate on cultivating one method， whatever you wish will be fulfilled. Why insist upon reciting this mantra or that sutra to accrue this or that merit， but not other merits? If you follow my instructions in a flexible way， you will naturally 'understand one thing and penetrate one hundred things.' If not， even if I speak at length， your mind will not be focussed and you will not obtain any benefits! （Patriarch Yin-Kuang）"
