the universe is already harmonious

wanderers in the unknown

 

Forget

about understanding and 

harmonizing and making all things one. 

The universe is already a harmonious 

oneness; just realize

that. 

 

If you 

scramble about in

search of inner peace, 

you will lose your 

inner peace.

marry mind to breath and look within

joni niemala

 

The

entirety

of the Oneness is

contained within you.

Don’t believe it?

Go look.

 

The

senses can’t perceive it.

Thought fails to apprehend it.

Approach by sacrificing all knowing

and doing, though, and it 

envelops you.

 

Marry

mind to breath and

look within until all false

concepts and imaginings

come to an end. This

is the center of

the Way.

aid should all be clear and free

pieter bruegel the elder

 

As you

help people and

respond to their potential,

it should all be clear and free. You mustn’t

roll around in the nest of weeds or play with your

spirit in the ghost cave. If the supposed teacher uses

contrived concepts of “mysteries” and “marvels” and “the

essence of truth”, if he cocks his eyebrows and puts a gleam

in his eye and cavorts around uttering apt sayings and thereby

binds the sons and daughters of other people’s families

with doctrines he claims are absolute realities, then

he is just one blind man leading a crowd of

blind  people — how can this produce

any genuine expedient

teaching?

zen letters

 

regard it as if raising an infant


 

If you can really

get to see your original Mind,

you must regard it as if you were raising

an infant. In whatever you do such as walking, standing,

sitting, lying down, be aware of Mind so that everything is illuminated

by it, so that nothing of the seven consciousnesses (vijnana) soils it.

If you can keep him [the new born Mind] clear and distinct,

it is like an infant growing up becoming

equal with the father.
