Not many and not one.

Post by muni »

There was once the ocean
Being not one and not many
No many drops, no one drop
Just the bright full ocean


Warm sunbeams touching,
Dancing lights of the ocean
Are not many and not one
Indescribable beauty.


The drop surrenders,
Melting pain into peace.
Love has no boundaries
Is not many and not one.
“We are each living in our own soap opera. We do not see things as they really are. We see only our interpretations. This is because our minds are always so busy...But when the mind calms down, it becomes clear. This mental clarity enables us to see things as they really are, instead of projecting our commentary on everything.” Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo.

Thus shall ye think of all this fleeting world:
A star at dawn, a bubble in a stream;
A flash of lightning in a summer cloud,
A flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream.
