The Wisdom Times
The Way is basically perfect. It doesn't require perfecting.
The Way has no form or sound.
It's subtle and hard to perceive.
It's like when you drink water:
you know how hot or cold it is,
but you can't tell others.
[Bodhidharma : Indian Zen Buddhist monk who brought Zen from India to China (c. 520 AD)]
TWIST Comment: The path of/to perfection is always a tough one. Often one would find saying, 'others don't see it the way I do or understand'. Perfection always comes with an expectation. The expectation that the things around us should be as perfect as our own perfection. In nature everything is perfect. Being part of nature, we are born perfect, our lives are perfect and follows a rhythm. It's the mind that corrupts the perfection. Isn't mind doing a perfect job of it everytime? We do not want to accept things are perfect. In finding faults, we find satisfaction. That gives us a lot of thrill than just enjoying a perfect balanced state or an unconditional acceptance. Perfection is not an impossibility, it's the acceptance of it that's at stake.
