Cultivating the Mind of Love

Impermanence is good news. Without impermanence, nothing would be possible. With impermanence, every door is open for change. Instead of complaining, we should say, “Long live impermanence!” Impermanence is an instrument for our liberation.

Listen deeply without using your intellect, and you will find yourself in the Avatamsaka world, touching light, jewels,

You walk and you free yourself of all worries, anxieties, projects, and attachments.

The well-being of man depends on the well-being of non-man elements in nature.

Shakyamuni Buddha explains that Prabhutaratna is a Buddha who realized full enlightenment a very long time ago and made a vow to come and utter, “Wonderful! Wonderful!” every time a Buddha appears in the world and teaches the Lotus Sutra.

Getting angry in the historical dimension, we close our eyes and look deeply. Where will we be in three hundred years? We open our eyes and hug.

If you suffer, it’s not because things are impermanent. It’s because you believe things are permanent.

We cannot say the Buddha is alive or dead. Reality transcends birth, death, production, and destruction.

If we practice, we will understand the way the mind constructs things, and we will touch the Buddha.
