hang with Buddha

Smile about what you may ask? It isn’t “about” it is “just be” and the smile is there.

The Master keeps her mind
always at one with the Tao;
that is what gives her radiance.

The Tao is ungraspable.
How can her mind be at one with it?
Because she doesn’t cling to ideas.

The Tao is dark and unfathomable.
How can it make her radiant?
Because she lets it.

Since before time and space were,
the Tao is.
It is beyond is and is not .
How do I know this is true?
I look inside myself and see.

When you do not know what to do, just sit in the circle of the situation and watch and wait.

Amazing how this really works, even in a crisis.

it is PEACE

My friend gave me a new Buddha for my new car. He is a red Buddha, and he really helps. He smiles. It is so nice to have a sincerely smiling Buddha in the car.

Right on.

Last Friday I said good-bye to my trusty van Buddha, and the van. It has gone to a good family. I miss Buddha while I am in traffic though, although his smiling attitude remains with me. I will be searching for a new fellow to join me in my travels with my Bug Bianca.

Could it be that the Buddha is the little girl Olive in this movie?

Sometimes you are the Buddha

Read Siddhartha by Herman Hess

What a good book… German school children read it in middle school! Imagine the difference if American children did too.
