Continuing from Yesterday
But even so, we shouldn't ignore things, we
should make our best effort in each moment. That is a kind of attachment, but
this attachment is, at the same time, detachment, because the next moment you
should make your best effort again. So it means detachment from the previous
being. In this way, moment after moment, we exist. This kind of understanding
is expressed by our technical terms of Nirmanakaya Buddha, Sambhogakaya Buddha,
and Dharmakaya Buddha. --------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 68-10-00-C as found on shunryusuzuki.com. Edited by DC - Going through Suzuki lectures and posting anything that can stand on its own. Not looking for zingers or "the best of." I find that following these excerpts daily provides another way to experience Suzuki's teaching. - DC
