Nondual
Highlights: Issue #2872, Sunday, July 15, 2007, Editor: Mark
This whole baobab tree of illusion
With its roots
And it's trunk
And it's sap
And it's bark
And all its branches and leaves and shade,
All of it,
The whole complete tree -
Is contained
Within the fruit
Hidden
In the tiny seed
Known by the name
of
"Me"

For the human being which considers itself an entity to remain
puzzled, Consciousness must produce new puzzles. All that is
happening is that Consciousness is amusing itself.
- Ramesh S. Balsekar
This moment
The presence of this moment
Only that.
Who am I without my beliefs?
New New New

an infinite expanse
of an apparent sea of being
as beheld in repose
while all around
the myriad waves of this sea
arising before
and beholding thus
to realize
to see
a bodhisattva
each one
as if embraced
in infinite sea
of
boddhisattvas

Here is the Pure Land
Here is the Pure Land
The Pure Land is here
I smile in mindfulness
And dwell in the present moment
The Buddha is seen in an autumn leaf
The Dharma is a floating cloud
The Sangha body is everywhre
My true home is right here.
Breathing in
Flowers are blooming
Breathing out
I am aware that
Bamboo is swaying
My mind is free
And I enjoy every moment.
