Whenever I catch sight of others, thinking–

“It is through them,
That I will reach awakening,”

I’ll look with sincerity and love.

How can there be rejoicing,
how can there be joy,
when there is such fierce burning?

Why do those who live
in the midst
of such darkness
not search for a lamp?

–Buddha Shakyamuni
“Impermanence,” Udanavarga

The birds they sing
at the break of day
“Start again,”
I seem to hear them say.
Do not dwell on what
has passed away
or what is yet to be….

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering.
There is a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in.

–Leonard Cohen (ordained Zen monk)
Anthem

Ignorance is the leader
in the attainment of unskillful qualities,
followed by
lack of conscience and
lack of concern.

In an unknowledgeable person, immersed in ignorance, wrong view arises.
In one of wrong view, wrong resolve arises.
In one of wrong resolve, wrong speech….
In one of wrong speech, wrong action….
In one of wrong action, wrong livlihood….
In one of wrong livelihoood, wrong effort….
In one of wrong effort, wrong mindfulness….
In one of wrong mindfulness, wrong concentration arises.

–Buddha Shakyamuni
Samyutta Nikaya

If the root of a tree is medicine, then the fruit will be medicinal.
If the root is poison, there will be no doubt about the fruit.

Meritorious and unmeritorious qualities follow upon ones attitude and intention;
They are not derived from physical practices in themselves.

–Kunkhyen Jigme Lingpa
Quintessence of the Three Paths

So blue is the ocean,
Infinite is the mind.
So bright the heavens
Luminous is the mind.

Expanse of heaven
Meets with deep blue ocean.
Union at horizon
Takes me beyond breath.

–Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche
Mind Beyond Death

…discovering … ambiguity is called “discovering the seed syllable.” Ambiguity is called a “seed syllable” when it becomes a starting point rather than a source of problems…. This experience of ambiguity is a personal experience rather than an analytical experience.

–Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche
Journey without Goal
