LIGHT 31 Mar

Do you see the myriad colours in white sunlight?
Do you see the white light in a rainbow?

Unity lies in diversity.
Diversity lies in unity.

It is the same and at the same time it is not the same.
It is different and it is not different.
How different are you from another?
How similiar is another to you?

Are we one or are you one?
Us all sentient beings collectively is the Dhamamakaya,
the universal body of Buddha,
the omnipresence of Enlightenment, of reality.
This is the white light of us, the rainbow colours.

SPIRITUAL IMPROVEMENT 30 Mar.

Don't think of spiritual improvement as something abscure.
If you think of it as something obscure,
ignorance is obscuring you.

So what is spiritual improvement?
It is becoming a kinder person.
It is becoming a wiser person.

To improve spiritually is
to be knid enough to want to help all,
and to be wise enough to be able to help all.

WHAT YOU WANT 26 Mar.

Have --- great.
Don't have --- it's okay.

It's staying --- great.
It's not staying --- it's okay.

This is non-attachment ---
the unyearning all accepting heart.

This is case and simplicity.
This is a key to living without suffering ---
happiness.

LOST IN SPACE AND TIME 24 Mar.

I saw a man looking at nothing in particular. He did not look sad or happy, neither peaceful nor disturbed --- just neutral. Just blank --- maybe daydreaming. It seems that he is a kind of physical and mental standstill. Really can’t call it peace or suffering --- just kind of on the edge. Seems like a rare moment of “harmless mindlessness” --- lost in space and time with “nothing” to do. But meanwhile, life is ever fleeting away. Is he going to live like that forever like that? Wake up? Get Enlightenment, not lost.

EGO 9 Mar.

See the ego --- no matter how subtle,
in all the things that you do --- no matter how subtle.
See the ego in the words you use.
in the gesture you use,
in the way you walk,
in the way you think,
in the way you see things,
in the way you think...

If you see not the ego, no matter how subtle,
it might mean you are too unmindful,
or too pround to acknowledge your ego,
or you might have realised egolessness already.

MARA 5 Mar.

Did the Buddha fight Mara?
No --- He watched him...
real closely...
and he was vanquished.

Are you fighting your inner demons?
Why not just stand aside and watch them?
Just observe --- but see them clearly.
Something strange happens ---
they disappear in the light of mindfulness.

DARE TO LET GO 1 Mar.

Do you dare to list all your attachment on a piece of paper?
If not, why not? Are you TOO attached?

Do you dare to find the causes of each of your attachment?
If not, why not? Are you TOO attached?

Do you dare to imagine the peace without your attachments?
If not, why not? Are you TOO attached?

Do you dare to walk to path of letting go of your attachments
one by one?

If not, Why not? Are you TOO attached?
