concentrate on your breathing
To Shine One Corner of the World
A student who
had just concluded a thirty-day
zazen retreat with two enthusiastic dharma pals
asked Suzuki Roshi how to maintain the
extraordinary state of mind
he’d attained.
“Concentrate on your
breathing and it will go away,”
Suzuki said.
the myriad things are peaceful
Haven’t you
read the ancient worthy’s saying?
“The white clouds are clear and still, and the rivers
flow into the blue sea. The myriad things are
originally peaceful, but people
make trouble for
themselves.”
After all,
this statement is completely
accurate and true. If you know what it means
as soon as you hear it mentioned, you can use it to pass
through birth and death to freedom and no longer be obstructed
by the psycho-physical nexus. You will be like a bird getting
out of a cage — independent and free. With a single
stroke you put a stop to all other actions and
talk, and you no longer fall into
secondary views.
no such thing as other
To the
ordinary being,
others often require tolerance.
To the highly evolved being, there is no
such thing as tolerance, because there is no
such thing as other. She has given up all
ideas of individuality and extended
her goodwill without prejudice
in every direction.

the reward of the virtuous
Greed for
enlightenment and
immortality is no different
than greed for material wealth.
It is self-centered and dualistic, and
thus an obstacle to true attainment.
Therefore these states are never
achieved by those who covet
them; rather, they are
the reward of the
virtuous.
If you
wish to become
a divine immortal angel,
then restore the angelic qualities
of your being through virtue
and service.
This is the only
way to gain the attention
of the immortals who teach the
methods of energy enhancement
and integration that enable
one to reach the
divine realm.
These angelic
teachers cannot be sought out;
it is they who seek out the student.
When you succeed in connecting your
energy with the divine realm through
high awareness and the practice of
undiscriminating virtue, the
transmission of the
ultimate subtle
truths will
follow.
This is the path that all angels
take to the divine realm.
