A quotation from Marcus Aurelius
The first rule is, to keep an untroubled spirit; for all things must bow to Nature’s law, and soon enough you must vanish into nothingness, like Hadrian and Augustus. The second is to look things in the face and know them for what they are, remembering that it is your duty to be a good man. Do without flinching what man’s nature demands; say what seems to you most just — though with courtesy, modesty, and sincerity.
[Τὸ πρῶτον μὴ ταράσσου: πάντα γὰρ κατὰ τὴν τοῦ ὅλου φύσιν καὶ ὀλίγου χρόνου οὐδεὶς οὐδαμοῦ ἔσῃ, ὥσπερ οὐδὲ Ἁδριανὸς οὐδὲ Αὔγουστος. ἔπειτα ἀτενίσας εἰς τὸ πρᾶγμα ἴδε αὐτὸ καὶ συμμνημονεύσας ὅτι ἀγαθόν σε ἄνθρωπον εἶναι δεῖ καὶ τί τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἡ φύσις ἀπαιτεῖ, πρᾶξον τοῦτο ἀμεταστρεπτὶ καὶ εἰπέ, ὡς δικαιότατον φαίνεταί σοι: μόνον εὐμενῶς καὶ αἰδημόνως καὶ ἀνυποκρίτως.]Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher
Meditations [To Himself; Τὰ εἰς ἑαυτόν], Book 8, ch. 5 (8.5) (AD 161-180) [tr. Staniforth (1964)]More info about (and translations of) this quote: wist.info/marcus-aureleus/2676…

#Fudōshin (不動心), the "immovable mind", is a central #Zen concept denoting inner stability and #equanimity amid change. Rooted in Buddhist teachings on #impermanence (#anicca) and non-self (#anatta), it embodies resilience not through suppression, but through adaptive presence and non-reactivity. In this post, we briefly explore its significance in Zen practice and philosophy.

An emblem gold on green. Elephants, they say, never forget; meditation improves memory by reducing stress. Mahouts still ever-questing trunks by giving them something to hold, in this case the lotus―we still the mind by holding a mantra. Yin-Yang reminds us of change and balance in life. Lotus symbolic of enlightenment blooms from the turbid swamp, reminding us that enlightenment is a continuous life-long journey to improve understanding of our manifestation in the world.
