Zen Humanism

"Words tend to fill the mind, pictures tend to clear it."

"

Who is journeying for freedom?
The one who is already free.

Just get rid of the concept, “I am the body, separate from the source.”
You return to what you always were.

"A true religion does not confine people to the darkness of ignorance and blind obedience. On the contrary, it awakens people intellectually and nourishes them. In the end, a true religion produces people of wisdom. Intellect is an extension of faith, and faith is an extension of intellect. With both faith and intellect working harmoniously, one can achieve unlimited self-development as a human being, fully developing one’s character."

"Death is a harsh but unavoidable truth. During a loved ones last days all that we can do is try to ease their suffering. Tell them we love them as well as showing them. Out of this experience we come to value others more. We realize that all people are both precious and fragile. If you come to think in this way, our love for others increases out of our loss. Do not fear death, for it is death that teaches us the most about life, and that lesson is love."
