  1. "The entire universe in the ten directions is one bright pearl." In Ikka myōju, #Dōgen develops this image to illustrate the nondual nature of reality, where all phenomena are interconnected and mutually inclusive, challenging conventional distinctions between self and world, subject and object. Here's a brief summary and discussion of the fascicle:

  2. Peace begins when you stop trying to control what was never yours to control. Let what comes, come. Let what stays, stay. Let what leaves, leave. You can love deeply without clinging, and care without losing yourself. Sometimes, the greatest freedom is learning to let life unfold without fighting every change.

  5. Few are the people
    who reach the Far Shore.
    These others
    simply scurry along
    this shore.

    But those who practice Dhamma
    in line with the well-taught Dhamma,
    will cross over the realm of Death
    so hard to transcend.
    ~Dhammapada 85-6

  8. Suffering the mind
    Nirvana waits patiently
    Anxious thoughts push on

    Frenetic seeking ensues
    Suffering intensifies

  9. If we don't critically analyze things, we become lost in a world of make-believe that has very little correspondence with reality. Shantideva compares self-obsession and its attendant conflicting emotions to a demon:

    "All the harm with which this world is rife, All fear and suffering that there is, Clinging to the "I" has caused it!
    What am I to do with this great demon?!?"

    The Buddhist definition of a
    demon is something harmful.

  20. One who lives restrained in the senses
    And focused on unpleasant things,
    Who is moderate in food,
    Who has faith and diligence:
    Mara cannot overcome him,
    Just as wind cannot overcome a rocky mountain.
    ~Dhammapada 8

  21. "Covid sparked this kind of innovation worldwide. Now even many sanghas that returned to in-person sitting (or never stopped) have an unobtrusive laptop on a table in the corner of the zendo or Buddha hall, with offsite attenders participating in the only way (in many cases) they can. When visiting their websites, if you have a yen to sit in meditation with them but can't show up in person, check for a live video link." >>
