“A man’s true life is the way in which he puts off the lie imposed by others on him. Stripped, naked, natural, he is what he is. This is a matter of being, and not of becoming. The lie cannot become the truth, the personality cannot become your soul. There is no way to make [...]

“Mind can accept any boundary anywhere. But the reality is that, by its very nature, existence cannot have any boundary, because what will be beyond the boundary? – again another sky.That’s why I am saying skies upon skies are available for your flight. Don’t be content easily. Those who remain content easily remain small: small [...]

Whenever a thought occurs,
Be aware of it,
As soon as you are aware of it,
It will vanish.
If you remain for a long period
Forgetful of objects,
You will naturally become unified.
This is the essential art of zazen.

Just don’t seek from others,
If your ears see,
And eyes hear,
Not a doubt you’ll cherish
How naturally the rain drips
From the leaves!

Just don’t seek from others,
Or you’ll be far estranged from self.
I now go on alone;
Everywhere I meet it:
It now is me;
I now am it.
One must understand in this way
To merge with thusness.

Ik door se aati hai
Paas aake palat-ti hai
Ik raah akeli si
Ruktii hai
Na chalti hai

In everyone it towers like
A mile high wall,
Flashing a great precious light
In everyones’s presence.
One thought ten thousand years,
Ten thousand years one thought,
Eating when hungry,
Sleeping when tired,
Who worries about the alteration
Of light and dark,
The change of the seasons?

Above all to my heart i am true
It does not tell me what to do
It beats, I live, it beats again.
For what? I wish I knew it knew.

You have to learn to be a witness to both … the outer and the inner, both are realities and there is also something more than a reality, that is your witness. Go beyond the outer and the inner both.
Go beyond duality, and a grace starts falling over you like rain.In this great moment you [...]
