One Mind ~ Bassui Tokusho Zenji 抜隊 得勝 ~ Zen Buddhism

Bassui Tokushō (1327-1387) was a Rinzai Zen Master born in modern-day Kanagawa Prefecture who had trained with Sōtō and Rinzai Zen-masters. Bassui was unhappy with the state of Zen practice in Japan during his time, so he set out in life with the mission of revitalizing it. The problems he saw were really two sides of the same coin. That is, he saw both too much attachment by some monks and masters to ritual and dogma as well as too much attachment by some monks and masters to freedom and informality.
Bassui was one of the "wild men" of Zen-along with such masters as Hakuin, Basho and Ryokan-who existed outside the institutional system. His spirited teaching of the Way as the immediate, personal experience of buddha-nature has inspired Zen students for hundreds of years as well as Zen masters such as Hakuin.

These are such a gift to the world

[@jariwala38]

Contemplating on Death gave me insights which I never realized. My own mother's early death was life changing. I can't even put that in words that was has just happened in front of me. She was so silent that I cannot speak a word not even in my mind. Mind was so empty that I feel the movement of my emotions through my body. I was so victim of life that I can't help but be silent. Everyone mistaken me as I was depressed but I was so in to life that no words could put that in words.

Who is it that reincarnates?

[@markpalmermusic14]

Reincarnation [birth/death/birth/death] is part of the illusion/dream, so it doesn’t really happen. Like for example, in a nighttime dream, you might die and be reborn many times, while in truth, nothing really happens. It’s all part of the same one dream/illusion.
