Mutterings from Justin

Holy and Unholy: Is there anything that is not Holy? Isn’t every rock and blade of grass sacred? Can’t Holy and Unholy be manipulated, as Krishnamurti suggests? From one point of view, each word is the word of God; Every happening points to Reality. Seen this way, What is Unholy? Bad Karma? Bodhidharma answered the Chinese Emperor, who asked for the ‘Holy Truth’–“Vast emptiness and nothing Holy about it.” The term “Vast Emptiness” is hard for most to comprehend, but that is another matter.

Flower on the Hillside-
The First Snow.
Life dies and is renewed again.

* * *

Striving, striving, striving–
The years are soon used up.
The brilliant rising sun will set when day is ended.

Evanescence–What is it that remains?

* * *

There is rebirth, but no-one who is re-born.
Life is constantly renewed, but, as for Justin—who knows?

Walking thru the snow in great peace,
there was no sense of destination.
