The Song of Oneness

The Song of Oneness

"The way of the wise is withoutknowledge...in the place of ten thousand sutras... one song." Ikkyub - Zen Tradition

Here and now... in this blissful moment... I am... all is... One. If we are wakeful in the here and now, we are always fulfilled. It matters not what is happening. Primary Being imbues our Becoming with its innate delight. We sing the song of Oneness.
The above quotation is short, sweet and to the point. It's about the emptiness of authentic Being. All intellectual knowledge is the domain of Becoming. If secondary Becoming dominates primary Being, knowledge is fragmenting. The egocentric glorification of the mind precludes its transcendence. While we may be full of information, we lack wholeness and fulfillment.
If primary Being dominates secondary Becoming, we are mostly still and empty. The fragmented mind is transcended. We are wakeful in the here and now moment, and experience the newness of creative consciousness. We are blissful and free. In stillness and emptiness there is only one song... the song of Oneness.
Let's keep it simple in the spirit of this quotation. This week's focus is to put Being first in all your experience. Practice wakefulness... moment by moment. Be still... be blissful... be One.
