It’s said that one of the great patriarchs of the Zen tradition, Hui Neng, was enlightened upon hearing a single verse of the Diamond Sutra (one of the key teachings in Buddhism).

That verse can be translated in various ways, but the key line in it goes something like: Develop a mind that clings to nothing.
