04.07.1998 - Interpretation of dali48
The East, although poor (for that very reason etc. - d.48), has not experienced those excesses of fanaticism and violence. - which the West has learned. - Worldwide, the religious institutions are governed by material and political interests. - It is much better to shut up and wait - until it is over. - If you cut down its roots - the tree crashes. - Everything is unstable. - There is suffering. - Even without going, you arrive at home. - The deepest truths are revealed by themselves. - Even if you are enlightened, even if the thoughts no longer press you, there is still a small point to solve. - Is it right to consider gold and silver as dust? - The shadow of the bamboo sweeps the floor of the porch - but the dust does not move from the spot. - The moon is mirrored in the water - but it leaves no trace on the surface of the pond. - All things go into the one. - But where does the one go? - When I leave the apartment - it is empty and lifeless (and when I leave the body it is also empty and lifeless etc. - d.48). - Who passes the test of emptiness, is declared the winner. So that your name is on the list of winners, do not leave empty pages. - Who feels the pity - considers it as humanism, and wise men as education. - This reverence for the intrinsic value of each individual thing, be it animated or inanimate, leads to a desire for things to be used appropriately rather than being thoughtlessly wasted and destroyed. - True to Zen Practicing, then means - never letting lamps burn, if you do not need them, never letting water run uselessly into the sink, never let spoil a rest of food inappropriately! - But if you have no insight into the true nature of the world, and you can not intuitively understand it - what else is left to you than to indulge in a life of material well-being and sensual gratification? - In the midst of all changes there is something immutable - something perfect between all imperfections, peace in chaos, silence in noise, and finally life in the midst of death. - The true wealth of man does not show in what he possesses - but in what he can let go with dignity ... (Thich Nhat Hanh)
