I Vow Not to Burn Out

"In my world, there always seems to be way too much to do, along with too much suffering and societal corruption and not enough spaces of deep rest and regeneration." #MushimPatriciaIkedahttps://www.lionsroar.com/i-vow-not-to-burn-out/

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Joseph Goldstein

When we see deeply that all that is subject to arising is also subject to cessation, that whatever arises will also pass away, the mind becomes disenchanted. Becoming disenchanted, one becomes dispassionate. And through dispassion, the mind is liberated. — Joseph Goldstein

And that to me is the healthy heart of contemplation (a.k.a. meditation). It's an allowing. It’s a participation in the living truth that's always already here, before we even have thoughts or names for it. And it’s embrace with that. It’s a participation with that, and in that, and as that.

Much of #meditation, especially in the style of #Zen shikantaza (“just sitting”) or the West’s “via negativa” — which, again, are somewhat odd-sounding words for something which is actually really basic — is about not doing things

“Just don’t contrive.” “Just don’t pick and choose.” “Just this.” You can find invitations like that at the heart of a number of contemplative traditions.
