Short break 8/28/2022

I watched the lecture video of the homeopathy teacher. I agree with her teaching by her saying that the most important thing on our life is to improve our spiritual awareness levelこの世で一番大事なことは霊性の向上. All the events happen to support our learning and improvements.

She shared Ikkyu Soujun who was a Zen Buddhist monk and poet in the Muromachi Era.

「有漏路(うろじ)より無漏路(むろじ)へ帰る 一休み 雨ふらば降れ 風ふかば吹け」

「この世の生は、無漏路に至る一休みのなのだ」

有漏とは煩悩があるという意味

I interpret his teaching like this.

During our life, we have rainy days and windy days. It means we sometimes encounter tough time and challenging events. However, our life is a short term from the point of spirits. It actually is like a short break between the time we go back to the spirit world. Therefore, no matter what happens on this world, if we fully understand everything is temporary and nothing stays the same, and stay being in the condition of Satori; the enlightenment, nothing can bother us and nothing can hurt us. Take it easy. And enjoy every moment.
