Those who just throw their bodies and minds into Buddhism and practice without even thinking of gaining enlightenment can be called unstained practicers. This is what is meant by ‘not stopping where the Buddha is and walking quickly past where the Buddha is not.’
Dōgen, in A Primer of Sōtō Zen: A Translation of Dōgen’s Shōbōgenzo Zuimonki by Reihō Masunaga (from a kōan concerning Chao-chou Ts’ung-shen)
