Zen Sayings

The persurance of Zen is to discover a source of happiness and meaning beyond worldly pursuits and to achieve a state of deep peace and liberation.

Image from the internet

Zen is a double-edged sword, killing words and thoughts, yet at the same time, giving them life. Although beyond human intellect and philosophy, Zen is their root and source. - Masao Abe

Quiet the mind and the soul will speak. - Ma Jaya Sati Bhagavat

Whisper to Trees. Laugh with Flowers. Sing with Birds. And Breathe. - Unknown

Sometimes, simply by sitting, the soul collects wisdom. - Unknown

You wander from room to room hunting for the diamond necklace that is already around your neck! - Rumi

Not till your thoughts cease all their branching here and there, not till you abandon all thoughts of seeking for something, not till your mind is motionless as wood or stone, will you be on the right road to the Gate. - Huang Po

I have lived with several Zen masters – all of them cats. - Eckhart Tolle

Laozi aka Lao Tzu

Laozi, also romanized as Lao Tzu was a Chinese philosopher and author of the Tao Te Ching, one of the foundational texts of Taoism. The name, literally meaning 'Old Master', was likely intended to portray an archaic anonymity. A central figure in Chinese culture, Laozi is generally considered the founder of Taoism.
Image from the internet

Understand this if nothing else: spiritual freedom and oneness with the Tao are not randomly bestowed gifts, but the rewards of conscious self-transformation and self-evolution. - Lao Tzu

Integral awareness is fluid and adaptable, present in all places and at all times. That is true meditation. The Tao is clear and simple, and it doesn't avoid the world. - Lao Tzu

Without stirring abroad, One can know the whole world; Without looking out of the window, One can see the way of heaven. The further one goes The less one knows. - Lao Tzu

Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don’t resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like. - Lao Tzu

Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you. - Lao Tzu

The key to growth is the introduction of higher dimensions of consciousness into our awareness. - Lao Tzu

Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy. - Lao Tzu

Be careful what you water your dreams with. Water them with worry and fear and you will produce weeds that choke the life from your dream. Water them with optimism and solutions and you will cultivate success. Always be on the lookout for ways to turn a problem into an opportunity for success. Always be on the lookout for ways to nurture your dream. - Lao Tzu

The Universe

It is especially important in this discussion to recognize the unity of the total process, from that first unimaginable moment of cosmic emergence through all its subsequent forms of expression until the present. This unbreakable bond of relatedness that makes of the whole a universe becomes increasingly apparent to scientific observation, although this bond ultimately escapes scientific formulation or understanding. In virtue of this relatedness, everything is intimately present to everything else in the universe. Nothing is completely itself without everything else. This relatedness is both spatial and temporal. However distant in space or time, the bond of unity is functionally there. The universe is a communion and a community. We ourselves are that communion become conscious of itself. - Thomas Berry
Image from the internet

Think of this random Universe where everything is possible. The organizational skills belong to Law and Attraction. If you will relax and allow Law of Attraction to do the organization and the managing, then you can spend your time doing the things that please you. - Abraham Hicks

Everything you see or hear or experience in any way at all is specific to you. You create a universe by perceiving it, so everything in the universe you perceive is specific to you. - Douglas Adams

You are a function of what the whole universe is doing in the same way that a wave is a function of what the whole ocean is doing. - Alan Watts

He who lives in harmony with himself lives in harmony with the universe. - Marcus Aurelius

Look inside yourself and you can see the universe. - Brian Herbert & Kevin J. Anderson

You as Universal Consciousness are manifesting yourself as everything, but not split up into being an observer of your display. The mirror is not experiencing it's reflections, the mirror is itself reflections. - Jackson Peterson

Meditation

Although one can meditate in a group, meditation is still a very individual and private activity. When you close your eyes to meditate, you are on your own. In fact, it might be better to meditate on your own, as there would be less distractions.
Image from the internet

Meditation practice is like piano scales, basketball drills, ballroom dance class. Practice requires discipline; it can be tedious; it is necessary. After you have practiced enough, you become more skilled at the art form itself. You do not practice to become a great scale player or drill champion. You practice to become a musician or athlete. Likewise, one does not practice meditation to become a great meditator. We meditate to wake up and live, to become skilled at the art of living. - Elizabeth Lesser

Sitting silently, one should experience quietly all that is happening around and do nothing else. You are hearing sounds, listen to them silently; a bird is singing, listen to it silently; the breath is moving in and out, go on watching it silently – nothing else has to be done. - Osho

I believe that reading and writing are the most nourishing forms of meditation anyone has so far found. By reading the writings of the most interesting minds in history, we meditate with our own minds and theirs as well. This to me is a miracle. - Kurt Vonnegut

One practice I rely on all the time is basic meditation which allows me to strip away the noise. It’s like the old-fashioned dial on the radio, where you were getting static and then you found that clear, sweet spot on the dial, where the music would come through. That's what meditation is for me. Dialling out the static, the noise, the anxiety, the fear, and coming into a place that's deep and quiet. It's like dropping into a well of inspiration and wisdom. - Elizabeth Lesdser

Truth

If you want to assert a truth, first make sure it’s not just an opinion that you desperately want to be true. - Neil deGrasse Tyson
Image from the internet

An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it. Truth stands, even if there be no public support. It is self-sustained. - Mahatma Gandhi

Possessed by ideas of the past, preoccupied with images of the future, the mind overlooks the plain truth of the moment. - Lao Tzu

When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains however improbable, must be the truth. - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Questions are key to door of truth. - Charlie Chan

Truth alone will endure, all the rest will be swept away before the tide of time. - Mahatma Gandhi

The words of truth are always paradoxical. - Lao Tzu

A wise man always seeks the light of truth and prefers the company of those who know the value of truth to those who trample it under their feet. - Unknown

Calm The Mind

A quiet mind is all you need. All else will happen rightly, once your mind is quiet. As the sun on rising makes the world active, so does Self-awareness effect changes in the mind. In the light of calm and steady Self-awareness inner energies wake up and work miracles without effort on your part. - Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image from the internet

When our mind is calm, it reflects reality accurately, without distortion. Breathing, sitting, and walking with mindfulness calms disturbing mental formations such as anger, fear, and despair, allowing us to see reality more clearly. - Thich Nhat Hanh

When mind is still, then Truth gets her chance to be heard in the purity of the silence. - Sri Aurobindo

At certain times, a silent mind is very important, but ‘silent’ does not mean closed. The silent mind is an alert, awakened mind; a mind seeking the nature of reality. - Lama Yeshe

Do not let trifles disturb your tranquillity of mind. The little pin-pricks of daily life when dwelt upon and magnified, may do great damage, but if ignored or dismissed from thought, will disappear from inanition. - Grenville Kleiser 

Even when in the midst of disturbance, the stillness of the mind can offer sanctuary. - Stephen Richards

If the mind is not contrived, it is spontaneously blissful, just as water, when not agitated, is by nature transparent and clear. - Unknown

Only in quiet waters do things mirror themselves undistorted. Only in a quiet mind is adequate perception of the world. - Hans Margolius

If we can learn to make the mind still, it will be the greatest help to the world. - Unknown

Compassion

We have to make mistakes, its how we learn compassion for others. - Curtis Sittenfeld
Image from the internet

When we know ourselves to be connected to all others, acting compassionately is simply the natural thing to do. - Rachel Naomi Remen

It is only with true love and compassion that we can begin to mend what is broken in the world. It is these two blessed things that can begin to heal all broken hearts. - Steve Maraboli

The purpose of human life is to serve, and to show compassion and the will to help others. - Albert Schweitzer

There is no small kindness; every compassionate act makes large the world. - Mary Anne Radmacher

Compassion crowns the soul with its truest victory. - Aberjhani

If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion. - Dalai Lama

Buddhism

If there is any religion that could respond to the needs of modern science, it would be Buddhism. - Albert Einstein
Image from the internet

The starting point for Buddhism is not dogma or belief in the supernatural, but the fact of the existence of sorrow and suffering, not merely the sorrow and suffering of the poor and the wretched, but also of those that live in the lap of luxury. Its goal is not heaven or a union with God or Brahman, but to find a refuge for man from the miseries of the world in the safe haven of an intellectual and ethical life through self-conquest and self-culture. - Pokala Lakshmi Narasu

The teachings on love given by the Buddha are clear, scientific, and applicable… Love, compassion, joy, and equanimity are the very nature of an enlightened person. They are the four aspects of true love within ourselves and within everyone and everything. - Thich Nhat Hanh

People normally cut reality into compartments, and so are unable to see the interdependence of all phenomena… We are here to awaken from the illusion of our separateness. - Thich Nhat Hanh

The secret of Buddhism is to remove all ideas, all concepts, in order for the truth to have a chance to penetrate, to reveal itself. - Thich Nhat Hanh

Our egoistic ideas are delusion, covering our Buddha Nature. - Shunryu Suzuki

Religion

Isn’t it a remarkable coincidence. Almost everyone has the same religion as their parents? And it always just Happens to be the right religion. Religions run in families. If we’d been brought up in ancient Greece we would all be worshipping Zeus and Apollo. If we have been born Vikings we would be worshipping Wotan, and Thor. How does this come about? Through childhood indoctrination. - Richard Dawkins
Image from the internet

Since it is no longer permissible to disparage any single faith or creed, let us start disparaging all of them. To be clear: an ideology is a belief system with an inadequate basis in reality; a religion is a belief system with no basis in reality whatever. Religious belief is without reason and without dignity, and its record is near-universally dreadful. - Martin Amis

Most religions believe that by crying, "Lord, Lord!" often enough, they can contrive to enter the kingdom of heaven. A flock of trained parrots could just as readily cry the same thing, with just as little chance of success. - Grandier

I'm for decency – period. I'm for anything and everything that bodes love and consideration for my fellow man. But when lip service to some mysterious deity permits bestiality on Wednesday and absolution on Sunday – cash me out. - Frank Sinatra

The trick to good marketing is to make the targets feel incomplete without your product. Herein lies one of the secrets to religion’s success. - Michael Sherlock

Faith

Having faith in a thing does not make that thing true. Your faith doesn’t even make it ‘probably’ true. Having faith has no weight on truth at all. Having faith simply means you will believe in a thing even if it’s not true.
Image from the internet

The discoveries of science have proved that the opinions concerning a firmament above, and a flat earth beneath, are completely inaccurate; but faith delights more in sublimity than truth; it soars far above science in its discoveries, and holds accuracy in contempt. - Ethan Allen

The notion that faith in Christ is to be rewarded by an eternity of bliss, while a dependence upon reason, observation, and experience merits everlasting pain, is too absurd for refutation, and can be believed only by that unhappy mixture of insanity and ignorance, called faith. - Robert G. Ingersoll

About God

I can’t imagine a God who could have produced this world. It is too higgedly-piggedly, partly good, partly bad. I should say that there is everything in the world to show that it is a haphazard and accidental world. It doesn’t seem at all likely that any purpose produced it, but it seems more likely it just grew, and that’s why it is such a mess. - Bertrand Russell
Image from the internet

The lack of understanding of something is not evidence for God. It’s evidence of a lack of understanding. - Lawrence Krauss

The God idea is growing more impersonal and nebulous in proportion as the human mind is learning to understand natural phenomena and in the degree that science progressively correlates human and social events. - Emma Goldman

If the concept of God has any validity or any use, it can only be to make us larger, freer, and more loving. If God cannot do this, then it is time we got rid of Him. - James Baldwin

The gods of men are sillier than their kings and queens, and emptier and more powerless. - Maxwell Anderson

The gods, my dear simple fellow, are a mere expression coined by vulgar superstition. We frown upon such coinage here. - Aristophanes

I don’t know if God exists, but it would be better for His reputation if He didn’t. - Jules Renard

I cannot believe in a God who wants to be praised all the time. - Friedrich Nietzsche

Which is it: is man one of God’s blunders, or is God one of man’s blunders? - Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

They are always saying God loves us. If that's love I'd rather have a bit of kindness. - Graham Greene

Gods die when they are forgotten. - Neil Gaiman

Atheism

Image from the internet

All children are Atheists; they have no idea of God. - Paul-Henri Holbch

Atheism is rather in the life than in the heart of man. - Francis Bacon

Being an atheist is kind of like being the only sober person in the car and nobody will let you drive. - Unknown

I'm an atheist, and that's it. I believe there's nothing we can know except that we should be kind to each other and do what we can for other people. - Katherine Hepburn

It is often said, mainly by the 'no-contests', that although there is no positive evidence for the existence of God, nor is there evidence against his existence. So it is best to keep an open mind and be agnostic. At first sight that seems an unassailable position, at least in the weak sense of Pascal's wager. But on second thoughts it seems a cop-out, because the same could be said of Father Christmas and tooth fairies. There may be fairies at the bottom of the garden. There is no evidence for it, but you can't prove that there aren't any, so shouldn't we be agnostic with respect to fairies? - Richard Dawkins

Be Still

The stillness of the body, the silence of speech, and the spacious awareness of mind are the three doors to enlightenment. - Adyashanti
Image from the internet

Nothing is more important than reconnecting with your bliss. Nothing is as rich. Nothing is more real. - Deepak Chopra

Let thine occupations be few, saith the sage, if thou wouldst lead a tranquil life. - Marcus Aurelius

In the stillness of being I remain forever here and now. - Unknown

The quieter you become the more you can hear. - Ram Dass

Not to be able to stop thinking is a dreadful affliction, but we don't realize this because almost everybody is suffering from it, so it is considered normal. This incessant mental noise prevents you from finding that realm of inner stillness that is inseparable from Being. - Eckhart Tolle

To truly hear, you must quiet the mind. - Sherri Bishop

Spiritual Journey

The spiritual journey is a very personal thing. As such, it can be a lonely one for those starting out. However, after a while, when you have gained awareness and understanding, you will find not find it lonely any more. You will find peace and enjoy the alone time. Life will not be so much of a mystery any more. Life will still be ‘hard’ and complicated, but you learn to take it in your stride.
Image from the internet

The spiritual journey is individual, highly personal. It can’t be organized or regulated. It isn’t true that everyone should follow one path. Listen to your own truth. - Ram Dass

Flowers do not force their way with great strife. Flowers open to perfection slowly in the sun... Don't be in a hurry about spiritual matters. Go step by step, and be very sure. - White Eagle

Your spiritual journey is whatever light and grace you bring to whatever you do; It is the kindness and assistance that you extend to whomever you meet.- Elizabeth Gilbert

As I make my slow pilgrimage through the world, a certain sense of beautiful mystery seems to gather and grow. - A. C. Benson

When an illness is a part of your spiritual journey, no medical intervention can heal you until your spirit has begun to make the changes the illness was designed to inspire. - Caroline Myss

The two hardest tests on the spiritual road are the patience to wait for the right moment and the courage not to be disappointed with what we encounter. - Paulo Coelho

Yes, I am a Spiritual being. But I am also a human being. Sometimes I get frustrated, annoyed, angry or sad, but this is all part of my lessons, and my journey always leads me back to the light! - Unknown

On the spiritual path, all the dreck and misery is transformed, maybe not that same day, but still transformed into spiritual fuel or insight. - Anne Lamott

Mysticism

Mystical experiences are often described as transformative, altering the lives of those who have them by fostering higher states of consciousness, unconditional love, and a sense of unity with all existence. 

While it has roots in various religious traditions, modern mysticism is found across many cultures and spiritual paths, not being tied to any specific philosophy. 

The core of mysticism is the belief that one can experience spiritual truth directly, rather than relying on revealed or conceptual knowledge. 

Image from the internet

Everything is vibratory in nature. Vibrations impinge on our outer senses, leading to perception and formation of realities. Perceptions and realities help us to understand the physical world about us. Colour, in its pure form as vibration, is an actuality. Colour, as we perceive it, is a reality. - Rosicrucian Digest

When we speak of man, we have a conception of humanity as a whole, and before applying scientific methods to, the investigation of his movement we must accept this as a physical fact. These ties cannot be seen, but we can feel them. I cut myself in the finger, and it pains me: this finger is a part of me. I see a friend hurt, and it hurts, me, too: my friend and I are one. And now I see stricken down an enemy, I care least for, and it still grieves me. Does this not prove that each of us is only part of a whole? - Nikola Tesla

You are eternal Consciousness, currently in this wonderful physical body for the thrill and exhilaration of specific focus and creation. The physical being that you define as 'you' stands on the Leading Edge of thought, while Consciousness, which is really your Source, pours through you. And in those moments of inexpressible elation, those are the times when you are wide open and truly allowing your Source to express through you. - Unknown

The Way of Zen

Being Zen about something means just being as it is. Seeing clearly, hearing clearly, smelling clearly, tasting clearly, touching clearly – that’s Zen. So everything as it is, is truth. But when we add thinking, we don’t see truth as it is. We see something that we like, or we don’t like; we want or don’t want, we accept or don’t accept. That’s not Zen. - Venerable Hyon Gak
Image from the internet

The Way of Zen

Do one thing at a time.
Do thing slowly and mindfully.
Connect deeply with people and nature.
Meditate frequently.
Appreciated silence.
Expect nothing.
Be grateful for everything.
Observe without judement.
Consume less, create more.
Let go of fears and desires.
Listen to understand, not to respond.
Be patient and generous.
Love deeply.
Live simply.

Zen means to return to this moment. Hear the bird, hear the rain, feel the air-conditioning sitting here. That’s Zen. From that point I can function clearly, openly. - Venerable Hyon Gak

Image from the internet

Empty yourself of everything. Let the mind become still. The ten thousand things rise and fall while the Self watches their return. They grow and flourish and then return to the Source. Returning to the Source is stillness, which is the way of nature. - Lao Tzu

Be still. Stillness reveals the secrets of eternity. - Lao Tzu

Returning is the motion of the Tao. Each separate being returns to the common Source. Returning to the Source is serenity. - Lao Tsu

Never stop leaving and you will arrive. Stop searching and you will see. Stop running away and you will be found. - Lao Tzu

Worlds and particles, bodies and beings, time and space: All are transient expressions of the Tao. - Lao Tzu

At the centre of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want. - Lao Tzu

Don't think you can attain total awareness and whole enlightenment without proper discipline and practice. This is egomania. Appropriate rituals channel your emotions and life energy toward the light. Without the discipline to practice them, you will tumble constantly backward into darkness. - Lao Tzu

Understanding Energy

Chi, or Qi is the Chinese term for Life Energy, a vital force that flows through all living things. In western terms, it is call Universal Life Force or Vital Life Force.

It is this Life Force Energy that gives Life to humans, animals, reptiles, plants – anything that is alive on this planet. Without this Vital Life Force coursing through us, we will be dead. All living things will be dead things.

The key to getting the very best out of life lies in understanding and working with this energy.

Image from the internet

Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way. This is not philosophy. This is physics. - Albert Einstein

Everything is in motion. Everything flows. Everything is vibrating. - Wayne Dyer

Every change of condition in matter is brought about by the action of energy on it. - Dolbear

If real is what you can feel, smell, taste and see, then ‘real’ is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain. - Morpheus

Every single person has within an ocean of pure vibrant consciousness. Every single human being can experience that – infinite intelligence, infinite creativity, infinite happiness, infinite energy, infinite dynamic peace. - David Lynch

All works are being done by the energy and power of nature, but due to delusion of ego people assume themselves to be the doer. - Krishna

There are many ways to calm a negative energy without suppressing or fighting it. You recognize it, you smile to it, and you invite something nicer to come up and replace it; you read some inspiring words, you listen to a piece of beautiful music, you go somewhere in nature, or you do some walking meditation. - Thich Nhat Hanh

Stephen Hawking on the Universe

So long as the universe had a beginning, we could suppose it had a creator. But if the universe is really completely self-contained, having no boundary or edge, it would have neither beginning nor end: it would simply be. What place, then, for a creator? - Stephen Hawking
Image from the internet

Look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see, and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. - Stephen Hawking

We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special. - Stephen Hawking

There ought to be something very special about the boundary conditions of the universe and what can be more special than that there is no boundary? - Stephen Hawking

A lot of prizes have been awarded for showing the universe is not as simple as we might have thought. - Stephen W. Hawking

If we do discover a complete theory, it should in time be understandable in broad principle by everyone, not just a few scientists. Then we shall all, philosophers, scientists, and just ordinary people, be able to take part in the discussion of the question of why it is that we and the universe exist. If we find the answer to that, it would be the ultimate triumph of human reason. - Stephen Hawking

Science

Science – the systematic study of the structure and behaviour of the physical and natural world through observation, experimentation, and the testing of theories against the evidence obtained.

There must be no barriers for freedom of inquiry. There is no place for dogma in science. The scientist is free, and must be free to ask any question, to doubt any assertion, to seek for any evidence, to correct any errors. - J. Robert Oppenheimer

The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence. If you want to find the secrets of the iniverse, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration. - Nikola Tesla

Science is the great antidote to the poison of enthusiasm and superstition. - Adam Smith

Science is the only religion of mankind. - Arthur C. Clarke

The good thing about science is that it’s true whether or not you believe in it. - Neil Degrasse Tyson
