The One Word Sutra

Daikaku said "one word" would lead to enlightenment.

What is that word, SAY!

What is that one word? If you cannot find it your whole life will be spent in a dark cave. If you can say it you will leap your bounds with realization and pervade heaven and earth.

"Many tried to find the one word; they tried 'dharma', 'Buddha', and others to no avail.

"When the pearly sweat runs down the body, coming and going for the interviews with the teacher, the one word will be met directly." Imai
