Tricycle's Daily Dharma
One Thing at a Time
It is wonderful to learn to do one thing at a time. When we do formal zazen, we just sit; this means we do not add to the sitting any judgments such as how wonderful it is to do zazen, or how badly we are doing at it. We just sit.
When we wash the dishes, we just wash dishes; when we drive on the highway, we just drive. When pain comes, there is just pain, and when pleasure comes, there is just pleasure. A Buddha is someone who is totally at one with his experience at every moment.
- Francis Dojun Cook, How to Raise an Ox, Wisdom Publications

Ha, ha! Vilka självklarheter. Göra en sak i taget, måste vara en kille som skrivit (ingen simultanförmåga där inte). Men även självklarheter kan behöva sägas/skrivas... Dagens första garv!
Jag undrar om det är så självklart? Jag tycker att det är lätt hänt att försöka vara simultan så det knakar i fogarna 24/7.
