Ma Tzu


The buddha is the mirror; the buddha simply reflects, he does not react. He is always  empty like a mirror. Things come and go before the mirror, but they don't leave any trace  on the mirror. 

The essential principle is never objective; it is your subjectivity. The essential principle  has no form; it is absolute emptiness. The essential principle is a mirror; it only reflects, it  does not make any judgment of good or bad, of beauty or ugliness. 

I POSSESS POTENTIALITY; IT IS SEEN IN A BLINK. It is not a far away phenomenon. Just close your eyes, and look silently, deep, and it is there. It has been there for eternity, just  waiting for you to come home. 


Be silent. 
Let your body be completely frozen. 
Close your eyes, and look inwards with as much urgency and totality as possible. 
Deeper and deeper... you are entering the space we call the buddha. 
This  can become a great radical change in your life, if you are  courageous enough to go on, just like an arrow, to the very center of your being. 

You are just a witness, an empty mirror.
