Ascetics are everywhere.
They renounce shelter,
Work,
Fine clothing,
Speech and
Lifestyle.
But they are self-deluded.
True renunciates renounce concepts,
Ideas,
Opinions,
Judgements,
Hopes,
Past and Future.
Show Wu Hsin a single one of these.
-無心
At the moment of one's birth,
Death begins its pursuit.
Those who perceive themselves as not born,
As that which is eternal, are
Never caught up in
Death's net.
-無心
Seeing both sides of a coin is
The only way to understand it.
Not preferring one side
To the other is
The only way to know it.
Nothing is good or bad.
Seeking to make it otherwise is
The root of unhappiness.
-無心
The flower is not
Concerned about tomorrow.
It doesn't plan.
it doesn't worry about death;
Nor does it make effort to
Smell beautifully.
The flower teaches being,
Being what one is.
