Do not ever fight or argue,

because for God there are no fights

or arguments. For that One everything is love,

everything is in the form of love, compassion,

and truth. May God provide you with

the blessings and grace to live

in that state.

circumambulating the stupa

The “stupa”  to be

“circumambulated” is the body

and mind. Let enlightened wisdom

constantly patrol body and mind unceasingly

from moment to moment. This is called

“circumambulating the stupa.” All of

the sages of the past traveled this

path to find the bliss

of nirvana.

the central benefit of zen

posted in Uncategorized on February 5, 2024 by Brian

reality appears

 

The central benefit of zen,

in the context of ordinary ups and downs

of life, is not in the context of preventing the minus

and promoting the plus, but in directing people

to the fundamental reality that is not

under the sway of ups

and downs.

in the ocean of dharma

luminary of the rinzai

 

In the ocean

of the holy dharma
 there is neither

movement nor stillness. 
The essence of the wave

is like a mirror;
 when something comes, the reflection

appears. 
When there is nothing in the mind,


wind and waves are both

forgotten.

just observe and you’ll laugh aloud

“the champagne of comics”

 

Just look right here.

Don’t seek transcendent enlightenment.

Just observe and observe: suddenly

you’ll laugh aloud.
