• Whenever learners or those beyond learning awaken the mind, for the first time they plant one buddha-nature. Working with the four elements and five clusters, if they practice sincerely they attain enlightenment. Working with plants, trees, fences and walls, if they practice sincerely they will attain enlightenment. This is because the four elements and five clusters and plants, trees, fences and walls are fellow students; because they are of the same essence, because they are the same mind and the same life, because they are the same body and the same mechanism.

• Approach or come: refers not to the physical act of coming, but to the mental attitude; the heart is
  mentioned for sincerity. When they sincerely promise not to fight against you, do not pursue them.
  Remember that if they had fought against you, your difficulties would have been increased. Their
  neutrality itself may be a great advantage to you. So long as you are satisfied that they are sincere
  and their acts support their declarations of peace with you, you should not consider yourself justified
  in pursuing them and warring against them.
