I missed you
And in missing you I understood that one Can never be missed.
I love you
And in loving you I understood that Love is inside us all along.
Something that comes from within us.
Ever present, Never leaving.
So in loving you I learned to love everyone.
Not some, but all.
I love you.
I love all.


-Rev. Yao

The Buddha's way.
To refrain from doing any manner of evil,
To respectfully perform all varieties of good,
To carry out the purification of one's own mind.
This is what constitutes the teaching of all Buddhas.

The Great Heart of Wisdom Sutra

Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva while practicing deep Prajna Paramita Perceived all five skandhas were empty and was saved from suffering and distress
Shariputra, form is no different from emptiness
Emptiness is no different from form
That which is form is emptiness
That which is emptiness is form
Feelings, perceptions, impulses, consciousness, the same is true of these
Shariputra, all dharmas are marked with emptiness
They do not appear or disappear
are not tainted or pure
do not increase or decrease
Therefore in emptiness no form,
no feelings, perceptions, impulses, consciousness
no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, mind
no color, sound, smell, taste, touch, object of mind
no realm of eyes and so forth until no realm of mind consciousness
no ignorance and also no extinction of ignorance
and so forth until no old age and death and no extinction of old age and death
no suffering, origination, stopping, path
no cognition also no attainment
with nothing to attain
the Bodhisattva depends upon Prajna Paramita
and mind is no hindrance
without any hindrance no fear exists
far apart from every inverted view
dwells in Nirvana
All Buddhas in the Three Worlds
depend on Prajna Paramita
and attain complete unsurpassed enlightenment
Therefore know the Prajna Paramita
is the great transcendent mantra
is the great bright mantra
is the utmost mantra
is the supreme mantra
which is able to relieve all suffering and is true, not false
so proclaim the Prajna Paramita mantra
proclaim the mantra that says
gone,gone, gone beyond
gone all the way beyond, Bodhi Svaha!
heart sutra

My house is buried in the deepest recess of the forest Every year, ivy vines grow longer than the year before. Undisturbed by the affairs of the world I live at ease, Woodmen’s singing rarely reaching me through the trees. While the sun stays in the sky, I mend my torn clothes And facing the moon, I read holy texts aloud to myself. Let me drop a word of advice for believers of my faith. To enjoy life’s immensity, you do not need many things. - Ryokan

Who I'd like to meet:
!!!!!!!!Everyone!!!!!!!!

No one saves us But ourselves, No one can, and no one may.
We ourselves must Walk the Path.
*Buddha

All that we are is the result of what we have thought.
The mind is everything.
What We think,We Become.
*Buddha

I don't carry a gentleman's lute Or own a longevity crane. I'm as undistinguished as smoke And casual as sunset clouds. Scattered and low. Scattered and low. Sometimes I roam along Bilu Peak Or lounge around Maitreya's Court. Who needs seven hundred lifetimes? Who needs to be the houseguest of an Immortal? You can measure what's empty or catch hold of the wind; But the hardships of an ascetic monk are beyond reckoning. You can move an entire mountain or shrink a great distance; But nobody can plumb the depths of spiritual emptiness. In the space of just a single thought A thousand years can be speeded up or stopped. But the distance light travels in those thousand years Wouldn't reach the limits of a monk's travails. I could have been a deckhand And traveled all the seas; Or else a simple laborer, A porter with a pole. What if I had been born noble and wealthy? Shakya was; but he rejected that And so would I. Ah. Ah. So I don't carry a gentleman's lute Or walk around with longevity cranes. I just go, scattered and low, scattered and low. As obscure as smoke and casual as those sunset clouds.
by Ven.Chan Master Hsu Yun (empty cloud)

We are all flowers.
When the butterfly lands
We let it.
When the butterfly departs
We let it.
We are a flower.

This is our true nature.
To love and be love.
There is no greater calling in life
Then to love all that exists in this beautiful world.
Un-conditionally.

The living eye of Zen sees clearly through the heavens: the livelihood of the six senses takes place everywhere, without borrowing the form or appearance of another.

Into this life we're born
Baby sometimes we don't know why
And time seems to go by so fast
In the twinkling of an eye

Lets enjoy it while we can
Won't you help me sing my song
From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road
~ Van Morrison

Best wishes for a sunny and joyful summertime! Much Love ~ Lynola
