Muhyi-din Ibn 'Arabi

That he should face this darkness and this death
Worthily, and renounce all easy hope,
All consolation, all but the simple smile
Upon the face of Truth…
(From the Book of Earth, an ancient Egyptian funerary text.)

nor is speaking;
fasting is not God,
nor is eating;
aloneness is not God,

nor yet or all of such opposites.

How can you coat or frame
the changes in your life to harvest beauty,
brilliance, and wisdom?

Be a pearl without a shell.
A mindful flooding.
A spark turned to flame.
Bird settling nest.
Love lived.

deep understanding,
that meditation is a natural,
spontaneous meditation
which just happens....
this lie and living is an absurdity,
then you join in the dance.
You take part in this absurdity.

The only way the problems get dissolved is,
as soon as they arise,

With the future,
With the preoccupation of
What to do next, is
Most well regarded by those that
Others label as lazy.

It would be
The highest form of laziness.
Wu Hsin is doing
Exactly what he is supposed to be
Doing.
He knows this because
He knows that
He is not
Doing anything.
Meditating will bring peace.
However, Wu Hsin can guarantee that
Doing nothing will bring you life.
