01.10.2000 – Interpretation of dali48
His ability to cause and tolerate no surprises have meant that he was responsible for the timetable in a rather large Zen Center...
"And how are you"? - "This I would like to know myself"... "Stick to the doubt", said my wife. "I rather like a man like that"...
Who exercises true asceticism isn’t flying to Nirvana. The monk who breaks the commandments doesn’t slide in hell...
The verb "Buddhist" means "know"... The heavy exam to see 60 saints out of control, had broken his spirit. He had a nervous breakdown... (J.v.d. Wetering)
Madness helps us - to find our true nature... (C. G. Jung)
Bobbie-san had this little breakdown in the hotel in Tokyo. - This happens to the best saints. Listen to your superior. Stay true to tradition. Carry your Zen Bib and shave your skull. Sing the sutras...
This dog (see cat Niki, etc. - d.48) is really something of the Buddha-nature. The first understanding society in my life. Samsara (illusion) is Nirvana (beatific annihilation). I don't write this, and you can not read this. Nothing has happened. Nothing is important anymore. There is no tomorrow (illusion), yesterday has not occurred. Who understands this fundamental truth can sit and laugh at the roadside - as the Chinese "laughing Buddha" - during raging in front of his eyes, war, starving children and dogs that are beaten up, etc...
If an honest man teaches a false doctrine, false doctrine is true, if a dishonest person submits a true doctrine, it is wrong (see e.g. Einstein: "Everything is relative", etc. - d.48)... (Joshu = Chao-chou, 778 to 897)
Certainly we know now what's going on. How many times we have reincarnated us and haven’t still understood it?
"Where is the mountain of enlightenment"? - "Straight ahead, my dear." - Let's stay in motion? Do we live our lives? Let's make the best use of the particular circumstances that arise by chance? No, we're sitting there, encourage us to see us desperately looking for a confirmation to ensure that apart from going straight on, our ego-existence is of a considerable value. What value could be out of nothing?
How can we hope to accept the meaninglessness of our empty egos? We go straight on without taking care of "Tea Ladies"...
Fear was foreign to Zen students. Not caring for career, future, possession, wife or sweetheart, young, old parents, spiritual status, Zen followers related all their energy doing the right things under all circumstances, and not worrying about the result. Nothing was sacred...
If it's a "shit" for you, it's not important. This does not mean that you need not do it...
I have also given up most things. The most realistic people have done it. That there is nothing that we should hold on, either we know that at our age, - or we try to be crazy... (J.v.d. Wetering)
Interpretation of dali48
Janwillem Lincoln van de Wetering (1931 - 2008) was the author of a number of works in English and Dutch...
Van de Wetering was born and raised in Rotterdam, but in later years he lived in South Africa, Japan, London, Colombia, Peru, Australia, Amsterdam and most recently in Surry, Maine, the setting of two of his Grijpstra and de Gier novels and his children's series about the porcupine Hugh Pine...
Van de Wetering studied Zen under the guidance of Oda Sessō, together with Walter Nowick, at Daitoku-ji. Van de Wetering lived a year in Daitoku-Ji and half a year with Nowick and described these in The Empty Mirror. Van de Wetering describes a visit to the monastery by the highly respected Hugo Enomiya-Lassalle, describing his own mixed thoughts about this representative of what he deemed an old-fashioned religion. Sōkō Morinaga, Walter Nowick's Dharma brother, wrote in Novice to Master about traditional practices at that time...
De Gier, younger and attractive with deep brown eyes and curly hair and most-often sporting a tasteful denim suit, is single, handsome, and very successful with women. Despite his womanizing, he is an avowed bachelor, and dedicated most to his Siamese cat Oliver (at least, in earlier novels). He is a dreamer and deep thinker, with discursive pondering about "the void," Zen, and life. A native of Rotterdam, he is, like Grijpstra, an amateur musician. He often carries a small flute, and in odd moments he and Grijpstra improvise together in their office... (Wikipedia)
Van de Wetering (1931 - 2008) was born in Rotterdam, - and died in Blue Hill, Maine, USA
Golden Snow “Thanks for this wonderful information ... I firmly believe the longer we live the more we gain for the thoughts and feelings of other ... this was interesting and stood out I my mind "I have also given up most things. The most realistic people have done it. That there is nothing that we should hold on, either we know that at our age - or we try to be crazy ...I think that the more we let go of that we cannot cope with, or hope to solve, will bring us greater health... There is a lot of “SHIT” WE CAN LEAVE BY THE ROAD SIDE ... feeling a lot freer to move lightly through our lives ... thanks Zen is becoming a wonderful adventure in my life ... thank you dali48”
Golden Snow “Found in this a promise that there is hope for me, I want to learn more of Zen and Life I know I will be able to cope with life as it comes and enjoy to the fullest ... THE WAY IT SHOULD BE... to keep things in there right perspective coping as we move along in our journey ... wonderful dali48 , with much thanks”...
16.02.2014 – Dogma & Prejudices and Zen & Truth etc. by dali48
dali48 and menaced private tuition since 1989, and photographing a gold fish in Lake Morper in Erkrath till 5/2010
08/17/2000 - Interpretation of dali48
Attachment means to be fixed to dogmas, prejudices, bad habits and what one sees as truth…
How do we stand against the arms race in the world, - how do we face the environmental problems (see dali48 and "Flora & Fauna" since ca. 2000 etc. – d.48)...
How do we face the rich and poor (We are all a part of 'UN' - see Human Rights and Basic Income etc. - see "Banking Crisis 2008" etc. – d.48)...
How do we create peace in our immediate surroundings, - and in our environment?
Even Buddhism (see e.g. Zen, etc. - d.48) is not the truth - but only a means to achieve it... (Thich Nhat Hanh)
dali48, 3 years ago from Germany, Hub Author

17.02.2014 - Karmic connection and Environment and Chemicals etc. by dali48
dali48 and private tuition and photographing near Lake Morper in Erkrath, 8/1983 - 5/2010
04/08/2000 - Interpretation of dali48
We feel the way we live, - how we think and act, - how we react to other people and events… (Harvey / Cochrane)
We can no longer afford to view ourselves - as separate from the environment...
41 000 plant species out of 270 000 on Earth are threatened (ca. 1/7 etc. – d.48)... (World Conservation Centre, Cambridge)
Now we have to pay the price for our greed, - and stress and pollution take their toll...
Shocks, prolonged stress, poor diet and environmental toxins - weaken the immune system…
Negative emotions (see e.g. grief, despair, contempt etc. - d.48) harm particularly...
Among other things, we must learn to be compassionate and loving - without expecting a reward…
Our decisions shape the rest of our lives constantly. - We create our own destiny. - Never have two souls traveled the same path, - and each chooses their own path… (A. Cochrane)
Resentment, hatred, enmity and contempt - bind you to the people, you don’t like…
One day you have to solve this Karmic connection...
Learn the art to take life serious - in a funny way…
Golden Snow
“I am feeling the effects of our environment dali48 ... life is a living hell for me ... my system is destroyed with the effects of chemicals ... grateful for the help of your sites and blogs that have helped me a great deal in renewing my health to a more comfortable level ... our world is being destroyed as I write ... the spraying of chemical is taking its effect on the earth as well as us ... do the ones that are allowing the use of chemicals not realize what they are doing ... their greed is polluting our food and water ways ... this alone is causing great stress upon our bodies ... we will pay the price for this greed ... our environment is not separate from our lives ... thanks dali48 for your helpful Blogs etc.”
