Since I Became a Buddha – Part 2

Originally appeared October 2025

The past, present, and future are all the eternally abiding, and so everything is non-producing, non-extinguishing. Call it whatever you want—the Pure Land Paradise, the Sea of Garlands, the Inexhaustible Dharma. But the Buddha speaks the Dharma through the past, the present, and the future, eternally.

The sheer beauty and simplicity of this piece speak for itself. Especially now when the times seem so extreme, and we are overstimulated to react, to be able to pause and remember to practice always returns us to center.
