Whatever I do,
the responsibility is mine,
but like one who plants an orchard,
whatever comes of what I do,
the fruit, will be for
others.
I offer the actions
of this life to the God within,
and wherever I go, the
way is blessed.

a cool pile of ashes in the corner
The present
moment is the source of
everything. As long as you have
resentments about the past or ideas
about the future, you cannot
genuinely be in the
present.
You owe it
to your future self, and
to the rest of us, to be completely
absorbed here and now. Make all
notions of past and future a
cool pile of ashes in
the corner.

when the mind is seen for what it is
The purpose
and result of quietly
observing the self is to forget
the self. When the mind is seen for
what it is and fascination with
its activities dissipates,
reality, which was
always present,
appears.
It is at
this point that we
understand that nothing
is problematic and life
becomes thoroughly
enjoyable.

note to self and others
Should you desire the great tranquility,
prepare to sweat white beads.
studying texts and stiff meditation
Studying texts
and stiff meditation can
make you lose your Original Mind.
A solitary tune by a fisherman, though,
can be an invaluable treasure. Dusk rain
on the river, the moon peeking in and
out of the clouds; elegant beyond
words, he chants his songs
night after night.
