Buddha Quote

Thursday October 3, 2024

Calm
In a moment of the calm of meditation, I feel in my bones the
magnificent silent glory of peace. It is but a short peep at deep
deep peace. A thought flashed my mind-that this is only a
fraction of what the Buddha feels: unshakeable supreme calm. As I
open my eyes, the world appears in amazing technicolour, sounds
are in stereo surround sound. And the air is fresher naturally.
Heightened awareness! Evil is just dark clouds covering the
hearts of the good, that can be dispersed. This is almost
Pureland already. "Hold on to the calm," I beseech myself, "hold
on best you could-let the peace from everyday meditation overflow
into everyday living. The greatest magic trick is transforming
this world through transforming oneself. Samsara quelled inside
is Pureland outside. Quieten the heart and the world ripples no
more. Yes. This is only a glance of the Buddha's state... I feel
shivers down my spine, humbled by what the Buddha had attained
and pleasantly surprised once more, that He told me I can do it
too. Greater than receiving the promise of salvation is the
belief in one's own possible "self-vation." Suddenly, I felt the
Buddha's smile on my face. I know this moment of calm will come
to pass. And I have to tell myself solemnly, in His own
words-"Strive on with diligence."
