Jiashan’s Beautiful State of Mind
A student asked Jiashan, “What is your state of mind?” Jiashan answered, “Monkeys, clasping their young to their breasts, return beyond the green peak: a bird with a flower in its beak alights before the blue cliff.”
I’ve always loved this little story. In the mountains, the world goes about its life without us needing to do anything. At the same time, it’s happening within us as well as outside us. It’s a marvelous thing to feel this freedom.
When the mind is still it’s not different from the world.
Life continues with a kind of wonder, and we don’t make even our mistakes a mistake.
Join us on Sunday.
—John Tarrant
Meditation is not a task with a known goal. It’s something you can’t do wrong, a chance for the things of this world to come towards you and to meet you, for doors to open by themselves, and for us to see where the ancient paths lead.
Waking up is something we do together, in the online temple on Sunday. We love it when you join us.
—John Tarrant Roshi and all of us at PZI
