Sit in Zazen

Just stop your wandering.
Look penetratingly into your inherent nature,
and, concentrating your spiritual energy.

Sit in zazen and break through.


Bassui Tokushō

Meditate

Meditate on that which is beyond words and symbols.
Forsake the demands of the self.
By such forsaking you will live serenely.


Sutta Nipata

Live in Joy

O let us live in joy, although having nothing.
In joy let us live like spirits of light.


Gautama Buddha

Confusion

If you are confused,
there are a thousand differentiations,
ten thousand distinctions.

If you are enlightened,
everything is the same one family.

Hard to follow

The simplicity of the good man is hard to follow.
The simplicity of the evil man is easy to follow.

Looking for Peace

Looking for peace is like looking for a turtle with a mustache.
You won’t be able to find it.
But when your heart is ready,
it will come looking for you.
