Tuesday, September 25, 2007. The nature of reality. Love is truly the fabric of reality. What happens when we are experiencing anger, hatred, and aversion? We feel separated from others. We are here and others are there. We feel a sense of distance. What happens when we feel love, compassion, and tenderness? We feel connected. We feel close. We feel the distances diminishing and if we are completely filled with love we feel ourselves and others becoming one, melting together in oneness. Nils by the sea.

Tuesday, August 01, 2006. Sometimes a single aspect of the Dharma comes into focus, and in it you find the path in its entirety. Recently that has happened for me with the paramita of Virya. Virya is often translated as "energy", but for me it has come alive as what I would call "joyful enthusiasm". In our minds. Like "Why do I always have to do this? Or "Doing this is so boring,. I wish could hire someone to do this for me! Virya is an necessary ingredient in all stages of the path. It is essential ...

Wednesday, May 31, 2006. Simple Dharma. Complicated mind. I recently heard something that made a big impact on me. It was Lama Pema Wangdak that said the following:. Dharma is simple. It is mind that is complicated. Buddhist doctrine can seem immense and complicated, abstruse and impenetrable.

Saturday, September 06, 2008. Posted by Martin at Saturday, September 06, 2008. The wish for freedom itself. Is keeping me in bondage. Is the one built by myself. A prison of my mind. Why do I struggle to be free. When all the universe. To bring me on this path? When mine is the nature. When my mind is a. Freedom is to aimlessly accept. That I am the world. And that the world is. Compassion and insight already. Between me and liberation. There is only one barrier. There is only the wish. Birds in the sky.

Thursday, January 25, 2007. Whatever joy there is in this world. All comes from desiring others to be happy,. And whatever suffering there is in this world,. All comes from desiring myself to be happy. But what need is there to say much more? The childish work for their own benefit,. The Buddhas work for the benefit of others. Just look at the difference between them! Posted by Martin at Thursday, January 25, 2007. From the beginning nothing is. Nils by the sea. This blog has moved. The nature of reality.

Tuesday, June 27, 2006. Boundless Buddha of emptiness. How grateful I am to rest. In your tender care. As the radiant red rays. Of your all-embracing love. Always and since beginningless time. With the sound of your silence. May you grant me. So that I may be in love forever. And so that I may. Put an end to the suffering and pain of all. Posted by Martin at Tuesday, June 27, 2006. From the beginning nothing is. Nils by the sea. This blog has moved. The nature of reality. An encounter with groundlessness.
