If not for the heart, what use is this all?
taiyaki
Veteran
"Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think necessary. Then ask yourself and yourself alone one question. This question is one that only a very old man asks. My benefactor told me about it once when I was young and my blood was to vigorous for me to understand it. Now I do understand it. I will tell you what it is: Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good. IF it doesn't, it is of no use."
-Don Juan, in his teachings to Carlos Castaneda
it's what we avoid the most because of all the sorrows and pain we received in this life.
to have a body/mind/heart is to feel pain. but when we are willing to open up to the pain we discover the amazing open heart.
infinite love and infinite energy of compassion.
what more do we need? isn't this the point? forget philosophy or theory. what use is buddhism if we cannot open our hearts to everything.
