Sit and Switch to Limitless Life and Light

Good morning!

 

We have now an approaching half moon phase, after the recent new moon, and the brilliant full moon. Things change so fast – truly, time flies.

 

Now we’ve got accustomed to sitting with candles only, without electricity. Ancient people studied with the light of fireflies in summer or the moonlight reflecting off of the falling snow in winter.

 

The Buddha did not have even a candle light. Instead, he was with the full moon always, illuminating all limitlessly.

 

We must also learn the limitless life, light, liberation, love, and learning. If we imitate and get accustomed to the Buddha’s way, we become buddhas, awakened ones.

 

If we imitate thieves, we become thieves. If we limit our life into five feet to six feet limits we lose limitless life.

 

If we are accustomed to small light or darkness, we miss bright light. If we sit and switch from limited life to limitless life, we can enjoy limitless liberation, love, and light beyond brightness and darkness.

 

Only when we are accustomed to the ultimate truth can we become friends of all, not creating problems and causing suffering, but enjoying limitless truth, goodness, and beauty.
