• Morning meditation — Without mind following things, freely playing everywhere.

  By Buddhism Now on 26 January 2025 • ( 0 )

  

  ‘Without mind following things, freely playing everywhere. Awakening through non-awakening, enlightenment without enlightenment. Gain and loss both cast aside, who speaks of good or bad? All actions originally without doing.’

• Morning meditation — The Buddha rarely described his awakening in detail.

  ‘The Buddha rarely described his awakening in detail. When asked to explain the nature of his enlightenment, he often remained silent, or he responded in ways that encouraged his followers to look inward rather than cling to his words.’

  ‘Bodhi originally exists — no need to guard it. Delusion originally empty — no need to eliminate it.’

• Morning meditation — When you sit, you’re sitting and when you stand, you’re standing.

  By Buddhism Now on 20 January 2025 • ( 0 )

  

  ‘When you sit, you’re sitting and when you stand, you’re standing, and there is no contradiction.
  The contradiction takes place in your mind when you make a distinction applying the past to the present.’

• Morning meditation — Reflective thought, isn’t a judgement.

  By Buddhism Now on 19 January 2025 • ( 0 )

  

  ‘Reflective thought, isn’t a judgement, it’s not should or shouldn’t; it’s saying: There’s suffering; there’s this feeling of pain; there’s this feeling of anguish, there’s a recognition of the way things happen to be as an individual being.’
