In his poem, Faith in MInd, Master Sheng-yen gives us a short verses that we should carry with us and take out when we are wondering what to do:
Cut of talking and thinking
And there is nowhere you cannot penetrate
Ah, again how hard to follow! Not talking and thinking!?!? In our modern age of relentless talking and thinking about everything!! Lindsay Lohan's necklace! Charlie Sheen's craziness!! Talk, talk, talk, talk. Where is the silence when we can see things as they are? Can you make your own silence and be still in it for awhile? What will there be?
