    102/108 Gates of Dharma Illumination

    The One Hundred and second Gate

    Entry into all conduct is a gate of Dharma illumination; for [with it] we attain realization of the Buddha-eye.

    All Conduct :
    Includes right conduct of the actions of the body, mouth and mind

    Like a clown
    I juggle thoughts, words and actions.
    They rarely stay in the flow.
    Undiscouraged,
    I'm constantly picking them from the floor.

        Me first (and only);
        My thoughts lead to my words and my actions.
        If I can find the Dharma eye
        My judgment ends with me.

        Gassho,
        Nengei
        Sat today. LAH.

          Right conduct can be effortless if we let our actions be guided by the Dharma.


          Don’t fight the current
          Just let go
          The stream knows the way


          Gassho,
          Seikan
