Trying to live a difference between love and craving i get so tense cause when i do not follow my impulse i am only anxious and when i do thee perhaps it feels like too much. But I never know the others and what they wish for and their intentions. So may it be a light to not want to have someone or was it offending?

There is truly nothing we need from the outside and just having enough food to sustain our daily life, we can feel thankfulness for being able to express our Buddha nature, filled with joy.

Due to Roshi's busy schedule this year, we are currently not accepting any new questions at this time
