After the Ecstasy

[Guest guest]

Here is a quote from Jack Kornfeld's new book, After the Ecstasy, the

Laundry.

 

"Mother Teresa spoke of "seeing Christ in the poor and sick" The poet

Rumi longs for the Divine: "In the face of everything separate, I want

to see only You." And when he remembers there is nothing but God (Buddha

Nature), he laughs and says, "Why struggle to open a door between us

when the whole wall is an illusion?" With every in and out breath, with

every mouthful of food, with every word we voice, we express our

interbeing with all that lives....

 

We exist in a mandala of wholeness amidst a sea of Buddhas, visible

whenever we open the eyes of love and wisdom."
