Ceasing of Self

The world is on fire with becoming. It’s not so deliberate or conscious, but an involuntary reflex. Hold the spacious openness rather than the objects, notice how things shift, change and pass through. It’s not actually oneself, it’s patterning. In Dhamma practice these patterns have to be exposed so they can be seen compassionately, spaciously, calmly and allowed to unfold and give their energy back into awareness.

Seeing the honest truth of the mind's delusion can teach us to develop a healthy mind and know true happiness. It is a doorway to freedom, opened through mental cultivation including loving-kindness and compassion for ourselves and all beings.

Faith

The Buddha likened faith to a seed, an intention, to grow in the direction of wisdom and compassion, to venture beyond what is known. The seed sends down roots which take in nourishment to grow the seed. The roots are likened to virtuous activity. From there, sprouts grow, blossom and bear the fruits of serenity and insight.
