The freedom of Heart

"For the enlightened, all that exist is nothing but the Self,

So how could any suffering or delusion continue

for those who know this oneness?"

-The Isha Upanishad

 

"If you want the secret of Buddhism, here it is:

Everything is in the Heart"

-Ryokan

 

  

In the silent freedom

 

from thinking about yourself at all

 

the imagined house of cards will fall

 

I am free beyond the stories of worries

 

Rocklike knowing vibrantly alive

 

simply being timeless seeing 

 

the glowing stillness

 

The Heart of

 

life itself

 

as it 

 

is
