Wisdom is the ability to realize that everyone has their own dharma, everyone goes their own way. What works for you is not the ultimate good. Know that other people have different way.

The essence of all practice is to be cool. Life is not worth getting excited about because whatever you perceive is an illusion.

Sports and athletics can be a path in Zen, in concordance with daily practice of zazen meditation. You need to move with your spirit, not just with your body.

Real wisdom does not occur here in this physical universe. Real wisdom is something that you have to move into the planes of the highest light to experience.

The greatest miracle is the miracle of wakefulness, to awaken from the dream of life and to see infinity everywhere, even in the finite, in the simple doings of life.

As the meditation evolves, you attention passes into higher realms of consciousness.

This is the process of mental analysis, sifting through the selves, sifting through your thoughts, practicing mindfulness, learning to control thought.
