hello Ben and all, 
Another try at the Chinese, which perhaps worked on other computers (?) but not 
here. The title is presumably (in traditional characters): 虛雲和尚法彙 Xūyún héshang 
fǎ huì (if that doesn't work with the tones: Xu1yun2 he2shang fa3 hui4). This 
would be "Hsu yun's Discourses and Dharma Words," lit., approx. Xuyun Buddhist 
Monk Dharma Collection. I'm writing this now with the browser setting as Unicode 
(UTF-8), if that helps. In simplified characters (maybe working better?): 
虚云和尚法汇.

The earlier attempt read here (with numerous question marks replacing text): 
I think this may be a quotation from ?????? X?y?n h?shang f? hu? (Hsu yun's 
Discourses and Dharma Words, lit., ...  


Ben's question: I'm  looking  for  the  Chinese  original  of a Chan Master  
Xuyun's  quote,  "Self-cultivation has no other method; 
It  requires  but  knowledge  of  the  way" (Charles  Luk,  Ch'an  and Zen 
Teaching Volume 1,  p. 62). 
It would be great if you could help me with this.
  Best wishes, 
  Ben
