    64/108 Gates of Dharma Illumination

    The Sixty-fourth Gate

    The power of effort is a gate of Dharma illumination; for [with it] we do not regress or stray.

    Power of Effort :
    great or marked ability to make an earnest or strenuous attempt

      Belief, wisdom, balance, mindfulness, effort...
      How much easier, these
      Strenuous tasks seem, their
      Arduousness laid to rest, when
      Taken together as one, in
      Right thought and right action.

      Gassho,

      Sat today. LAH.

      Please excuse any indication that I am trying to teach anything. I am a priest in training and have no qualifications or credentials to teach Zen practice or the Dharma.
