Mindfulness

                                                           We find "Medicine" in Huey Lewis and The News.   They song, "...making each day better than the day before", and for sure, this THIS is the "Ideal" .   I KNOW I can make this day better than yesterday if I confess that the 9th SUPER-Power of a Bodhisattva =  "Making People turn toward the Buddha's Teaching and then Guiding them to Perfection [Enlightenment]" actually helps to DEFINE my Existence and offering the 8-Fold  Nobel Path is my OBLIGATION an DUTY as a Zen Sword'sMan .    It  is IMPERATIVE that my Gentle Readers be made aware that during Zen Master Seung Sahn's "Ministry" he was asked to give a "Dharma Talk" by American Priests, Bishops and even Cardinals, who wanted to be "Closer to Jesus and His Teachings .   I say, God Bless Them, their Heart and SOULS were in "The Right Place" .   In the same way that [the Study and Practice of]  Martial Arts benefits ALL Sports, so it is that Zen and Buddhism CAN Benefit ALL Religions .  

                      OBVIOUSLY< you do NOT hafta-BE a Buddhist or Zen Buddhist to properly manage Suffering and Sorrow, you jus'-gotta be Mindful of the Source of this 'management', because when you do that, you access A THOUSAND YEARS of POSITIVE  >>> MIND ENERGY that is itself PROVEN, that has withstood the RAVAGES of Time and it SAVAGE-NESS .
