Re: Words
Lu-men moonlight spills through misty trees,
and I come again to the old hermitage.
The path leads through pines,
to the brushwork door
back again to solitude and silence.
Where a hermit lives,
there’s no need for companions.
Meng Hao-jan (689-740)

Beginner mind
If you don't mind;
the chaos and the chaotic mind,
If you don't mind;
bad and the bad people,
If you don't mind;
not knowing of facing what in the long run that you can easily become anything,
welcome to the practice
that you are not a buddha
If you mind;
the good and whatever the good; the innocent, the success, the good luck, health, the truth, long live, peace, joy, happiness... etc. etc
welcome to the practice
that you can become a buddha
One more thing;
If you're practicing
don't mind whatever comes
and have anything at all
that my experience is life is to short to mind everything!..
a goal and a practice in the beginning,
then only a line of living
same for everything
I wish not anyone miss the opportunity to live
these beauty of life while alive and have
the chance to practice
what do you think??

Re: Words
For a zen student it is not important of what is what.
For an advanced it is called enlightenment.
