武道 詩抄

DOJO OF THE ☯️ MIND

wholeheartedly 

listen to your heart;

taming the monkey 

DOJO OF THE ☯️ MIND

be consistent 

by accepting changes; 

remain constant

DOJO OF THE ☯️ MIND

tate-ken is good 

empi is better;

go nuclear

DOJO OF THE ☯️ MIND

to train is

to breathe;

train breath same

THE MINARAI SHIJIN ☯️ [見習い詩人]

matrix is real

we all live there;

quantum reality 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN ☯️ [見習い詩人]

light is fast

dark is instant;

thru dark to light

THE MINARAI SHIJIN ☯️ [見習い詩人]

addicted to beliefs 

addicted to emotions; 

you can change this 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN ☯️ [見習い詩人]

when at the door

threshold obstructed; 

no consummation 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN ☯️ [見習い詩人]

discouraged 

encourage others; 

courage my padawan

THE MINARAI SHIJIN ☯️ [見習い詩人]

expect nothing

be yourself; 

the moment is now 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN ☯️ [見習い詩人]

one hand clapping 

beats two hands clapping; 

applaud the hands 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN ☯️ [見習い詩人]

don't be fooled  

by asking a question;

inquisitive padawan 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

listen carefully

for the stones speak;

clack click clack

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

stability in change

find the pattern;

count consistently 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

frequency vibs 

strings of existence; 

be a low frequency 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

be like water

to see clearly; 

third eyesight 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

hitchhikers 

guide to zen-ish;

thumbs out 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

time says

understand the void; 

peer into the dark

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

yin does 

yang doesn't;

balance the moment

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

lose yourself 

then find yourself; 

make it a habit

ULTIMATE GAS LITE

when at the door

threshold obstructed; 

no consummation 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

to end is

to start anew;

in each moment 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

the void separates 

and brings energy together;

dark before light

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

discuss ideas

not events or people; 

remain in a void

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

precision begets power

timing beats speed; 

smooth is fast

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

words do lie

while actions don't; 

read body language 

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

cruel words  

and actions;

dangerous weapons

THE MINARAI SHIJIN [見習い詩人]

to know is

to know what to ignore; 

be attendent
