Seeing what is

A flower falls, even though we love it; and a weed grows, even though we do not love it.
~ Dogen

Zen is a way of liberation, concerned not with discovering what is good or bad or advantageous, but what is.
~ Alan Watts

If you understand, things are just as they are; if you do not understand, things are just as they are.
~ Zen Saying

If you want to know something, go elsewhere. If you want to un-know everything, then sit and listen.
The silence inside of you is the sound of your knowledge collapsing. Remember, it is you who said, "I want to be free."
~ Adyashanti

Life is thus
Death is thus
Verse or no verse
What's the fuss?

Trying to get to some place,
One cannot become lost.
~Wu Hsin

" Every day is a journey, and the journey itself is home."
~ Bashô

I confess that there is nothing to teach: no religion, no science, no body of information which will lead your mind back to the Tao. Today I speak in this fashion, tomorrow in another, but always the Integral Way is beyond words and beyond mind. Simply be aware of the oneness of things.
~ Hua Hu Ching

The whole point of Zen is to suspend the rules we have superimposed on things and to see the world as it is.
~ Alan Watts
