Blue Moon, Planet, Sky

    Good morning!   After sittings and service we can feel the calm and clear world penetrated by emptiness (śūnyatā) like the penetrating blue sky we see now. As we sit still, karmas – conceptions, emotions, and volitions penetrated by the Triple Poisons of desire, divisiveness, and delusion – still also, settling into nirvana, unconditioned peace, and bodhi, unsurpassed awakening.   We could see the bright blue full moon a couple of days ago. The full moon represents the Buddha’s heart and mind in brilliant clear and calm prognosis and peace. Anyone can witness this full moon mirror mind and heart settled in the high, clear, and calm sky, illuminating the whole world brightly and quietly. Constant and continuous cultivation is conducive to verification.   The blue planet on which we live with all has been under threatening dark clouds with global warming, mass extinction, etc. The most imminent and worst disaster, however, is nuclear holocaust, not only nuclear bombs at hair trigger alert on our cities, but also nuclear power plants at risk of a terrorism attack, accident, earthquake, etc.   I forwarded two articles to our listserv, etc. last night. The first one says that even a “small” exchange of 50 – 100 nukes could create clouds that would cool the earth to cause two billion deaths, and that we must insist our rulers learn lessons from Hiroshima and Nagasaki: No more Hiroshima, No more Nagasaki, No more nukes!  The second article says that it’s time for the US and other nuclear powers to disarm.     Note: The titles of the articles are: Joseph Gerson. Our 70th Anniversary Homework: Confronting the Myths and  Learning the Lessons of Hiroshima and Nagasaki Sarah Lazare. Iranian Foreign Minister: Time for US, Other Nuclear Powers to  Disarm           … Continue reading
