88 Direct Understanding and Attainment of Buddahood (1 of 6)

Want to be inquisitive? This is an exploration into thought. Thoughts play themselves out as a drama. They each have images with their own attitude, manner and style. Your mind is trying to remind you of what you most need to understand. Just direct your understanding to what is going on. By doing so, one can verify that we live in a caring and intelligible universe.

@dean85284 Please, tell me more about "what makes this heaven."

please

[dean85284]

There is no true stillness. Being alive or being dead, you move. It is common to reverse action and reaction in error. Zen practices are often an attempt to use reactions to gain an action. Do this instead: look and listen, then ask "What makes this heaven?" You will gain much more than the tormented monks.
