Suchness

Posted on October 28, 2011 by gavin Enlightenment Personal

We can fight or flee in the moment, feel fear or regret in the moment without fighting, fleeing, fearing or regretting the moment itself.

Each moment has a particular energy, wholeness and suchness that we can be sensitive to. Haiku poems try to capture that suchness:

gathering twigs
then crossing the bridge
in the evening mist
