Zen
Posted in Kyoto on September 15, 2006 by DHH
• Zen exists in one form: the Absolute Now. Now, Here, and Yourself is all that matters. Go for everything Now. Your Past and your Future depends on Now. Everything that matters is Now. Now is never anywhere but Now.
• Sincerity is the Reality. Everything in your head is a Mirage.
• Your body is like a mirror: What you see, hear, smell and taste does not remain. And because nothing remains, the heart and mind is at peace. Meet each instance with a new mind and a new thought.
• Zen is all that is simple.
