  • Totenamt

    I τ daget in dat osten,
    de maen schînt averall;
    wo weinich wêt mîn lêveken,
    wor ick benachten schal.

    The day is breaking in the east,
    the moon shines everywhere;
    little does my sweetheart know where I shall pass the night.

  • Empty vessel

    I am just an empty vessel
    saling the great sea.

    Forms arise and disappear.

    Change is just a principle
    no words describes the mysterious one.

    How can I forget
    that this moment
    and all existence
    is perfect
    and
    without flaws.

  • I am home

    I have arrived
    I am home
    in the here
    in the now
    I am Solid
    I am free
    in the Ultimate
    I dwell

    Thich Nhat Hanh

  • The Master of Demon Valley

    The world has no constant values, events has no constant guide.

    When others act, I am still; When others talk I listen. If you know your nature, you’ll have few troubles; if you know your destiny, you won’t worry.

  • Anuttara samyaksambodhi

    This means “complete, unsurpassed, perfect enlightment.” Notice, though, that the sutra first says the bodhisattva has nothing to attain and that, because of having nothing to attain, he attains complete liberation. You can’t attain liberation the way you attain a 1968 Camaro or D-plus on a math test. You can only attain liberation by clearly seeing there is nothing to attain.

  • Give up learning and put an end to your troubles

    Is there a difference between yes and no?
    Is there a difference between good and evil?
    Must I fear what others fear? What nonsense!
    Other people are contented, enjoying the sacrificial feast of the ox.
    In spring some go to the park, and climb the terrace,
    But I alone am drifting, not knowing where I am.
    Like a newborn babe before it learns to smile,
    I am alone, without a place to go.
    Others have more than they need, but I alone have nothing.
    I am a fool. Oh, yes! I am confused.
    Others are clear and bright,
    But I alone am dim and weak.
    Others are sharp and clever,
    But I alone am dull and stupid.
    Oh, I drift like the waves of the sea,
    Without direction, like the restless wind.
    Everyone else is busy,
    But I alone am aimless and depressed.
    I am different.
    I am nourished by the great mother.
