the Good Heretic

The more you judge, the less you love.

Do not be afraid to love. Without love, life is impossible.

Life is a balance
between holding on and letting go.

Those who understand the way it is, rather than the way they wish it were, are on the path to freedom

If it can be destroyed by the truth, it deserves to be destroyed by the truth.

People in the world cannot
identify their own mind.
They believe that what
they see, or hear, or feel,
or know, is mind.
They are blocked by the visual,
the auditory, the tactile, and the mental,
so they cannot see the
brilliant spirit of the their
Original Mind.

You have projected onto yourself a world of your own imagination, based on memories, on desires and fears, and you have imprisoned yourself in it. Break the spell and be free.

Zen is a journey of exploration and a way of living that, in and of itself, does not belong to any one religion or tradition. It is about experiencing life in the here and now and about removing the dualistic distinctions between “I” and “you” between “subject” and “objective”, between our spiritual and our ordinary, everyday activities.
