依法不依人

依法不依人。
依义不依语。
依了义不依不了义。
依智不依识。

– 释迦牟尼佛《大般涅槃经》

Rely on the Dharma; rely not on the personality of the teacher.
Rely on the meaning; rely not on the words.
Rely on the ultimate meaning; rely not on the provisional meaning.
Rely on the wisdom mind; rely not on the ordinary mind.

– Sakyamuni Buddha

(The Great Parinirvana Sutra)
