"Don’t think of after or of before. This is the secret of kendo. Only of here and now. During combat, don’t think of defeat, nor of victory, but be in the freedom of here and now."

"Do #zazen unconsciously, automatically and naturally, and it will have an infinite influence. Then everything is possible. But if your object is limited, then this object is not so large, it is not infinite."

"If the body is strong and the mind is weak, the body kills mind. And you become insane. If the mind is strong and the body weak, then mind kills the body. And you commit suicide."

Llevas toda la razón. Aunque no sé por qué se le llama a eso "zen". El budismo zen no habla en ninguna parte de ese egoísmo. Al menos no en los libros de Taisen Deshimaru, Suzuki, etc.

Me molesta que el capitalismo egoísta intente reducir a algo vil y de filosofía engreída-narcisista una filosofía

And tonight’s Buddhist wisdom from The Ring of The Way — Testament of a Zen Master

Taisen Deshimaru

"Time is neither good nor bad, but good and bad are time. Time does not choose between good and evil, but good and evil choose time.”

Dogen, quoted in The Ring of The Way — Testament of a Zen Master

Taisen Deshimaru

pg 108

#Zen #Buddhism
“Mind and body, outside and inside, substance and phenomena: these pairs are not dualities or opposed; they form a single, seamless whole.

When the mind's activity fills the cosmos, and we grasp opportunity as it arises, then we can arrange and cope with the ever-shifting flow of events…”

“Zazen is observing death while we are alive. Only the people who solve the problem of death, their own death, can find true happiness in life…
if we live we should become as the dead, and wake up. The dead do not need to wake up.”

The Ring of The Way — Testament of a Zen Master

Deshimaru
