Buddhist Prayer of the Day
Discourse on Lovingkindness
Let your love flow outward through the universe,
To its height, its depth, its broad extent,
A limitless love, without hatred or enmity.
Then as you stand or walk,
Sit or lie down,
As long as you are awake,
Strive for this with a one-pointed mind;
Your life will bring heaven to earth.
- The Buddha

Sit-a-Long with Jundo: Zazen for Beginners (We're All Beginners) III
Continuing our series on "How To" Zazen ...In our Soto Zen perspective, Zazen is Enlightenment Itself.Just crossing the legs, stretching the back, gazing at a wall, and all's done!Like saying that merely running a race --is-- the finish line crossed.In this race, there is nothing to gain or attain, nothing...Buddhist Quote of the Day
See everyone as Buddha. This purifies the mind of ignorance and arrogance.
