Connect What You Can’t See to What You Can See!
Happy Friday to You!
I’m taking the day off to do some inner-work today and enjoy my garden.
I hope you enjoy this Tao Te zen sutra today and I’m sending you my wishes for a beautiful, fun filled weekend for you!
To Know Everything . . .
Between each “thing” is empty space – without which there can be no “place”.
Astronomers draw a series of lines – insects follow along the vines.
Under your feet are worlds gone by – above your head- infinite sky; are these things not pieces of a much larger pie?
Have you ever seen a man act like a woman – only to wonder why?
Tao-Te-zen practice is a simple “I don’t know?”
Zen does not choose – but asks the rocks where they’d like to go.
Zen is knowing that the old oak tree is wiser than you or me.
Zen is as no-mind – eyes open wide – a knowing that in nothing – nothing can’t hide.
Zen is the gardener with shovel in hand, knowing that handle and blade are but tree and land.
In zen, “can’t see” + “can see” = “IS”
Zen “IS”
Love and chi,
Paul Chek
