Enlightenment is the axis
of zazen, sitting meditation.
Breathing in and breathing out
till my breathe takes me to nothing.
Nothing is the emptiness
enveloping my whole being
holding closely
to my bosom, the star.
The star of my destiny
I embrace and cuddle
look tenderly
as I sing my sweet lullaby.
As a Christian woman, the octave of Easter 2010 brought in me a vibrant promise on how to be a free person. Freedom means to be on top of my own ego, desire and mindset. An acceptance of the true self. In the Zen tradition, Sekito (Shitou in Chinese) said, "the expansive sky does not obstruct the floating white clouds". My free thoughts and feelings expressed in this blog is a witness that life is meant to be lived fully, freely, mindfully and joyfully.
