When you do something, you should burn yourself up completely, like a good bonfire, leaving no trace of yourself.
-Shunryu Suzuki
Bukko’s death blessing
Buddhas and ordinary men are equally illusions.
If you go looking for the true form,
it is a speck of dust in the eye.
The burnt bones of this old monk
embrace heaven and earth;
Do not scatter the cold ashes to mountain and sky.
- Bukko (d. 1286)
Nasruddin goes to a bath house one day. The attendant, who knows Nasruddin isn't a wealthy man, points him at a heap of old, tattered bath towels. The new, soft ones are for the rich folks.
The bath water's cold. "Hey! Can you bring some hot water in here?" Calls Nasruddin to the attendant.
"Get it yourself."
So Nasruddin takes his bath in cold water, dries himself with an old towel, and on his way out tips the attendant with a gold coin. A gold coin!
Next week, Nasruddin is back at the bath house. Same attendant. But this time: "Please, Nasruddin, take a new towel. No, take two." "I'll bring hot water for your bath." "Here, try this new scented soap." "If you need anything, I'll be right outside the door."
So Nasruddin has a great bath, and this time he tips the attendant with a copper coin and heads out.
The attendant follows. "Hey! But you gave me a gold coin last time!"
"Oh," says Nasruddin. "The gold coin was for this week. This," he says, pointing at the copper coin, "was for last week."
Better than a hundred years of mischief
is one day spent in contemplation.
Better than a hundred years of ignorance
is one day spent in reflection.
Better than a hundred years in idleness
is one day spent in determination.
Better to live one day wondering
how all things arise and pass away.
- Buddha in the Dhammapada
If your mind is fixed on a certain spot,
it will be seized by that spot, and
no activities can be performed efficiently.
Not to fix your mind anywhere is essential.
Not fixed anywhere, the mind is everywhere.
The Original Mind is like water which flows freely,
whereas the deluded mind is like ice.
There is a passage in the Diamond Sutra that says:
“The mind should operate without abiding anywhere.”
- Takuan (1573-1645)
Not twice this day
Inch time foot gem
This day will not come again.
Each minute like a priceless gem.
- Master Takuan (1573-1645)
The moon’s appearance, a river of stars,
snow-clad pines, clouds hovering on mountain peaks.
In darkness, they glow with brightness.
In shadows, they shine with a splendid light.
Like the dreaming of a crane flying in empty space,
like the clear, still water of an autumn pool,
endless eons dissolve into nothingness,
each indistinguishable from the other.
In this illumination all striving is forgotten.
- Hung Chih Cheng Chueh (1092-1157)
Sitting Alone
Meditating deeply upon Dharma
Reach the depth of the source.
Branching streams cannot
Compare to this source!
Sitting alone in a great silence
Even though the heavens turn
And the earth is upset,
You will not even wink.
- Jakushitsu Genko Zenji (1290–1368)
To learn to be always in a state of meditation means never to let your vital energy wane. You would never allow it to do so if it were certain that you were to die tomorrow. It wanes because you forget about death. Grit your teeth, fix your gaze, and observe death at this moment. You have to feel it so strongly that is seems as if it’s attacking you. Fearless energy comes from this. At this moment death is right before your eyes. It’s not something you can afford to neglect.
- Suzuki Shosan (1579-1655)
To look at life is like being in a dream;
It is really noisy being in the dream.
Everything stops when the dreamer suddenly awakens,
And in the same way as a dreamer awakes,
The wise understand how to wake from the dream.
The deluded believe in the dream and are disturbed
That understanding and dreaming
Seem to be two aspects.
When once the truth is comprehended,
There is no other comprehension.
- Master Pen Ching
Do not accept anything simply
Because it has been said
By your teacher,
Or because it has been written
In your sacred books,
Or because it has been
Believed by many,
Or because it has been
Handed down by your
Ancestors.
Accept and live only
According to what will enable
You to see truth face to face.
- Buddha
Two Questions (retold by Nasruddin)
It came to be that I was a mulla. This was when I was much younger. Now a mulla is an interesting job. A mulla is a teacher, a preacher, and a judge. I studied the Q'uran, and became quite familiar with the Sharia, the traditional Islamic laws, and began my time as a mulla in a little village in a far corner of the country.
Now a mulla is considered a wise man, and for some reason, the villagers considered me one. They would ask me questions concerning aspects of their lives in which I was not expert at all.
"Oh, Mulla Nasruddin, please tell me what I should do about my daughter!"
"I'm sorry, sister, but you must work that out for yourself. I don't have a daughter, so I cannot tell you anything useful."
"Mulla Nasruddin! My business is in terrible trouble! What should I do?"
"Brother,you see I don't have a business, so I cannot tell you anything useful."
"But you are such a wise man, Mulla Nasruddin! Please help me, please!"
"All right, here's what you should do..."
"Yes? Yes?" the man asked eagerly.
"Pray to Allah for wisdom."
He was not so happy with this answer. I think he had already tried that and found that Allah no matter how much wisdom Allah provided, he would not be able to do much with it himself.
Finally the situation got completely out of hand. People began to pester me with questions night and day. I was sleeping in the starlight on my roof, and a pebble hit me on the forehead. On reflection, it was more of a stone than a pebble. I feared it might have done permanent damage. I looked over the edge, and there in the street was a man looking up. "Mulla Nasruddin, are you asleep?"
"I find it hard to sleep when stones are falling from Heaven," I said.
"It was only a little pebble, Mulla, besides, I have a question."
"Brother, it is the middle of the night!"
"My question is very important, or I would not have disturbed you. Please come down and we can discuss it."
"Just give me the gist of it, and I'll ponder it on my way down."
"I need to know, Mulla Nasruddin, should I tell a prospective buyer that my donkey is sick?"
"I don't need to come down for that one. Of course you should! Honesty is required of you. And as it is also required of me, I tell you honestly that question could have waited till morning; go home!"
So it was, day and night, I couldn't even brush my teeth without being interrupted with questions. I brandished my miswak, my tooth-brushing twig, but somehow no one was frightened.
Finally I hit upon a solution. Beside my door I put a sign that said in large letters, "Two questions for $100."
Peace at last! Days went by with no questions; it was lovely. But finally a rich man came to my door with a bag of gold hanging from his belt.
"Nasruddin!" he called out. I came to the door. "May I help you?"
"You are fortunate today," he said. "I have plenty of money."
"You are the fortunate one,"I replied.
"I can afford your two questions," he said, and raised one eyebrow. I have always wished I could do that.
"So we are both fortunate," I said .
"Indeed," the man said. "But, don't you think one hundred dollars is a little expensive for just two questions?"
"Yes it is," I replied. "And what is your second question?"
Two Questions, Part II
