Living zen retreat / Day 20.

Today, drop everything

The wish to have a quiet day. The wish to become a Zen Master. The wish to awaken. The wish for inner peace. The wish to become a Buddha. The wish to carry on, to make a path of your life. This list could roll on…

Drop the lot, now!

Nothing bad’s going to happen. The sky won’t fall in. Your world won’t actually disappear. It may look different. That wouldn’t be a bad thing. The only change will be in you. Your view. Where you’re looking from. That will be the most beautiful seeing, experiencing, more beautiful than you could ever imagine. 

Don’t let your mind create your world, when life does a much better job of it.

In fact, drop where you’re looking from too. 

Drop the you that is looking.

Nike said “Just do it.” I say just drop it

Then keep on dropping it, every time anything arises to you. Stop creating your life, see it as it really is, and start living it! 

Just drop it, and live it. No effort.
