Handy

The way to help others as Nirmanakaya Buddha is to take various forms and give them some handy help.

When we realize this nature, which is universal, we can help others without trying to help them, because whatever we do, that is our activity.  --------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 68-10-00-B as found on shunryusuzuki.com.

I find that following these excerpts daily provides another way to experience Suzuki's teaching. - DC
