What is, is!


What is, is! "You cannot know God, but you can experience God. So a Master is a matter of experience. Not of acceptance or denial, not of knowing or unknowing, not of having or not having, not of calling or not calling, not of welcoming or not welcoming, but of experiencing. Posted by Hello

If you see the Buddha on the road, kill him!



This refers to an ancient Zen Buddhist saying, meant – like other non-sense proverbs of this tradition – to startle the student into a new way of looking at things. An attempt to get them out of their 'ROMANTIC SLUMBER'!

"Slaying the Buddha" means to become independent, to take responsibility for what you are and to learn to become who you ought to be. To get past your 'STORIES' about your-self'! Thus, if you find the Buddha on the road – not inside you – you know this Buddha is an imposter, an illusion, the Wizard of Oz in eastern dress. Get over it! Get Reality! Right into Light!
