Everyday Buddhism

Morning Meditation: Hatred is Universal.

‘Hatred is universal. Better to live a harmless awakened life free from the duality of good and bad.’

Everyday Buddhist

Joy is not something we can grasp and hold on to, it comes and goes like spring rain, softening everything.

‘Tantra is not that difficult.
Idea is by visualising being Buddha we get closer to Awakening.
As we are Buddha — why not act like Buddha?’

Everyday Buddhist

‘Monks, there are three kinds of suffering.
Suffering caused by pain,
suffering caused by conditioned existence,
and suffering due to change.’

The Buddha
Dukkhatāsutta

‘When trying to be still by stopping movement, the stillness itself is kept in motion; persisting with any extreme, how can you know the One?’

Seng-ts’an

‘Buddha taught directly from his own experience, for our direct experience. Seeing that is seeing everything.’

Everyday Buddhist

‘Looking inward, you discover meaning, but by chasing externals, you go further from the source.’

Seng-ts’an

‘True insight, in a moment, transforms the void into the world confronting you.’

Seng-ts’an
