Buddha or Bubble

Posted on April 26, 2013 by Rosan Daido

Good morning!   It is now drizzling. All kinds of flowers blooming (hyakka-ryōran,百花繚乱) and flower chill (hana-bie,花冷え) are also the Indra-net forms and functions. Springing spring, sunny summer, falling fall, and windy winter are all due to the earth’s movement. It makes rain or snow, springing lives or falling leaves.   Sitting in the Buddha mind seal returns to the limitless light and life of the Sun. Sitting in the bubble move seal remains in the limited liberation and love of the earth. Sinking in the small selves can never solve the greater global problems, much less see unconditioned peace and unsurpassed awakening.   4/24/13   Knuckles Range, Shri Lanka, photo by Lori Satterthwaite,  National Geographic

Mist Mystery

Good evening!   We now have a quiet evening with rather bright dusk light, with the subtle sounds of bird’s singing beyond the windows.   Just before I came here I saw lightening and even mist. I wondered if it … Continue reading →

Spring Storm
