Karmic Enjoyment

it’s a beautiful night
I label, I grasp
still, I appreciate
nice temporary conditions
with childlike delight
(especially in winter)

knowing the cause of this peaceful mind
is not this appearance
but an action, long passed
now the effect blooms
in the garden of good conditions
no external wish granted
just joyful disposition
for winter never could bring happiness
what is this effortless arising
so easy, so pure
it’s the mind of renunciation
samsara’s cure

for the only reason I now have delight
is Dharma given kindly
which I recall tonight

Become the Jedi Master of Your Life

Anger is a poison that eats away at your life giving energy winds.

Why would you indulge in such an addiction? What benefit is there?

All those giving up anger in turn for peace and love, for better health, better relationships, rejoice! And do not lose faith. Challenges will come.

The experience of healing anger is not linear. It is not better, better, better. It is many different things for different people. Sometimes better, bad, better, better, bad, better, better, worse you’ve ever been, better, best yet.

Not always. The only thing that matters is never giving up.

Become the Jedi Master of your own mind and respond to your thoughts and feelings appropriately.

May your path be blessed.
