accept everything that is

fabien barrau

 

Enlightenment

comes only when you accept

everything that is — without resistance,

without quarrel, in complete stillness. This is

the only, the simplest, the necessary

ground of being for complete

realization.

 

The opportunity

to dwell in quiet acceptance

exists in every moment — sitting, bathing,

cleaning, cooking, working, wherever.

When that moment passes,

it is present in the next.

Just embrace

it.

buddha nature is your own nature

here is what a buddha is

🪷 and also here 🪷

 

A deep

and sophisticated

understanding of Buddhism,

Taoism, Zen, Ch’an, philosophy,

meditation technique — none of these

is necessary to attain realization.

They are just as likely to

ensnare you in towers

of complicated

thought.

 

Abide

in the simple

understanding that

buddha nature is always,

has always been, will always be,

your own nature. Breathe into

that. Breathe out from it.

That is all.

Hexagram 25, Wu Wang / Innocence (The Unexpected)

 

the art of peace begins with you

this is the only practice

 

The art of peace

begins with you.
Work on yourself

and your
 appointed task in the art of peace.


Everyone has a spirit that
 can be refined, a body

that
 can be trained in some manner,
 a suitable path

to follow.
 You are here for no other purpose than


to realize your inner divinity and
 manifest your

innate enlightenment.
 Foster peace in your 

own life and
 then apply the art to 

all that you encounter.


 

Morehei Ueshiba

 

many try to usurp the style of zen


 

Nowadays many have

lost the old way, and many try to

usurp the style of zen, setting up their

own sects, keeping to cliches, and concocting

standardized formulas and slogans. Since they

themselves are not out of the rut, when they try

to help other people, it is like a rat going into

a hollow horn that grows narrower

and narrower until the rat is

trapped in a total

impasse.
