Not all suffering
Life is full of pain, but it also is filled with many miracles, like the blue sky, the sun, the baby's eyes. Pain is not all, we must get to know and experience the miracle of life, they are in our hearts, every one around us the corner, every minute. If we are neither happy nor peace, we can not share with other people calm and happy, even those who we love, and even our families. if we are calm and happy, our lives can Like a flower blooming like, our family, everyone in the community, will be quiet How we run. enjoy the beauty of the blue sky, we need to do any special effort? We have to practice how to appreciate it? No, we do not need, and we would appreciate it instinctively. our lives every minute, every second species may in fact enjoy the blue sky when it was over like a cozy comfortable. No matter where we live, when we have the ability to enjoy the blue sky, the presence of each other, or even the feeling of breathing. We do not need the Chinese to appreciate the blue sky, we do not need to go to enjoy the next breath, we can immediately understand, appreciate these things. If we just keep clear of pain sense, it would be very regrettable. in today's society, we are too busy, and almost no time to care for our loved ones, even our own families, there is no time to focus on our own. occasionally some leisure We do not know how to use it, so that we return to ourselves. We have many ways to send out these valuable Time: turn on the TV, picked up the microphone, open the car to a place to go. We are not used to get along with their own, and our actions as if we do not like their own, trying to evade their own like. meditation is conducted on what is happening and to maintain sense is - in our bodies, feel, and the hearts of the world, and all kinds occurred things. Every day 40,000 children die of hunger; superpowers has 50,000 nuclear warheads, enough to destroy the Earth many times. But the sunrise is beautiful, rose this morning along the wall opened, open into a miracle . Life is not only fear, but also brilliant brilliant. practices Zen is to fully appreciate both. Please do not think we have to Banqimiankong to practices Zen, do not, in fact, as good practices Zen, we have a lot of smiles. Not long ago I sat with a group of children, a boy named Tim smiled sweetly. I said: : adults smile, and this is an important thing. In everyday life, if we can smile, happy to have peaceful state of mind, then not only benefit our own body and mind, and everyone will be infected and moisture. This is a peace the most basic work. When I see Tim smiled, I was so happy, if he realize that he is making others happy, then he can say: to remind ourselves to relax, have a serene state of mind, we will want to set aside some time to rest, such as pure, naturally, one day, on this day, we can leisurely walk, smile, taste Qingming and friends to celebrate each other The joy will be as if we are the happiest people on earth. This is not to escape, but a treatment and rehabilitation activities. line in Zen meditation, in the kitchen and garden crafts, from morning to night, we can practice smiling . first you may think that a smile is difficult, then we have to think about why. smile means that we own, means that we have sovereignty on their own, which means we do not have to be buried in oblivion were. that smile, we can In the Buddha's face to see. I am very happy to dedicate a poem to all of you, when you practice breathing and smiling, you can always look to silent recitation: suck, I am physically and mentally safe cool; call out, with my face smile. living in the moment it, this moment really wonderful! I breathe the words of this sentence, I really feel that my body relaxed breathing, and I feel calm. relax muscles and nervous system. smile can make you take yourself, this is the reason Buddha is always smiling. When you smile, smile, you will realize that the miracle of creation. sit here, I do not want any other place, not the past, not future. I'm sitting here, and I know where I, it is very important. We used to live in the future, but not now. We often say that : have miles to find a job! the future. If the present moment is not good to live, then we might go through life, have not properly lived. Thus, life skills - if we have to refer to Live in the moment; acutely aware that we live in the here and now; one can only properly live the present moment is the moment. When here, taste the present moment, is our most important task. However, we still have to work hard to do. Just as we wish each other time, how can I force myself to smile? This is so not natural. machine, we are screwed to the Buddha on, we are Buddha; twist to the suffering of the channel, we are suffering; twist to the smile on, we are smiling. We can not allow a single channel occupied by us. all the things our hearts seed, we must grasp the situation, restore their sovereignty. When we sit down quietly, in the sense is to breathe and smile, we become truly ourselves, have their own autonomy; when we to a TV program open to themselves, we are left to their own in the invasion by this radio program. Of course TV is sometimes good, but very noisy most of the time they are meaningless. because we want something other than themselves, so we sat there letting the noise of a TV show aggression us, destroy us. Even if our nervous system is difficult to be very nervous, we have the courage to stand up and turn off the TV, because by doing so, we have to turn around face yourself. Meditation is the opposite. It can help us return to the true self. practices Zen in today's society is very difficult that all the things together so that we seem far from the true self. We have a lot of entertainment tools such as video, music, etc., are to maintain our self-distance. practices Zen is awake, smiling, breathing. these are addicted and numb, passive, negative behavior and attitude contrary initiatives. Why should return to self- it? to himself is to see what is happening, and practices Zen is on what is going to keep a clear sense of - what is happening right now, it is very important. Imagine you are looking forward to the birth of a child , you have to for him (her) breath and smile. Please do not wait until a child started to care about giving birth to him (her), you can start now to care for him (her), or even earlier. If you can not smile, it would is very serious. maybe you'll think: any emotion, anything done, must take into account your child, for his (her) sake, to him (her) as a starting point. Even if your uterus has no children, a child is already in the seed . Even if you're not married, even if you are a man, you should also realize that: a child was already there, the next generation of the seed was already there. Do not wait until the doctor told you that you have a baby you begin to care about it. It was already there. no matter what you are, what you do, your children will be affected. you eat any food, the hearts of all the anxiety will affect his (her). you told me you can can not smile? think about the baby for him (her) smile, smile for the next generation, please do not tell me your sad smile and uncoordinated. the pain is yours, and the children ware? pain is not his, nor is she The. children are a good understanding of every man and woman has an awareness, understanding and capacity to love. many children told me that they could not find a person is no such ability. some people allow it to develop, some people do not. but everyone has it. this awakening of the capacity - the ability to clearly understand your body, feeling, and perception, what is happening in the world, the ability, known as the Buddha, that is the ability to understand and love. Since the embryo Buddha in our hearts, we should give him (her) a development opportunity. Smiling is very important. If we can not smile, the world no peace. Peace is not held by us to a Field demonstrations against nuclear missiles to bring, it is by our smiling, breathing and ability to live peacefully founded.
