nor in inner feelings of emptiness.
and such erroneous views will disappear by themselves.
As long as you remain in one extreme or the other you will never know Oneness.
Those who do not live in the single Way

When the deep meaning of things is not understood the mind's essential peace is disturbed to no avail.
The way is perfect like vast space where nothing is lacking and nothing is in excess.
Indeed, it is due to our choosing to accept or reject that we do not see the true nature of things.
Live neither in the entanglements of outer things, nor in inner feelings of emptiness.
Be serene without striving activity in the oneness of things
and such erroneous views will disappear by themselves.
When you try to stop activity to achieve passivity your very effort fills you with activity.
As long as you remain in one extreme or the other you will never know Oneness.
Those who do not live in the single Way fail in both activity and passivity, assertion and denial.

Osho re: Hsin Hsin: The Book of Nothing:
***
"If I were to save only two books from the whole world of the mystics,
one would be Sosan's Hsin Hsin Ming," Osho says.
"It contains the quintessence of Zen, the path of awareness and meditation...the very soul of Zen." Himself a master of both words and silence, Osho builds a bridge between the modern, chattering mind and the infinite no-mind of Sosan through these Zen sutras - the only words uttered by Sosan, the 6th-century Chinese mystic and third Chinese patriarch.
