When you try to understand everything, you will not understand anything. The best way is to understand yourself, and then you will understand everything.
Shunryu SuzukiWhen you live completely in each moment, without expecting anything, you have no idea of time.
Shunryu SuzukiAnd we should forget, day by day, what we have done; this is true non-attachment. And we should do something new. To do something new, of course we must know our past, and this is alright. But we should not keep holding onto anything we have done; we should only reflect on it. And we must have some idea of what we should do in the future. But the future is the future, the past is the past; now we should work on something new.
Shunryu SuzukiWhen we have our body and mind in order, everything else will exist in the right place, in the right way. But usually, without being aware of it, we try to change something other than ourselves; we try to order things outside us. But it is impossible to organize things if you yourself are not in order. When you do things in the right way, at the right time, everything else will be organized.
