| Embarking on an Optimistic Path

| How to Surrender
In the Shin Buddhist tradition, as we listen to the teaching we are made to realize that we can never surrender ourselves. Resistance comes from the deepest center of our karmic selves. That’s why the Buddha Amida’s compassion says, “Tai, you don’t have to surrender.” When I hear that, when I understand that I can’t do it because it’s not my nature–that it’s like saying, “Fly to the sky”–then I realize that I don’t have to surrender, yet, naturally and spontaneously, the surrender takes place by virtue of true compassion. – Taitetsu Unno, “Even Dewdrops Fall: An Interview with Taitetsu Unno” |

 A Guide to Generosity
Two important things about true giving: First, it requires some sacrifice on the part of the giver. To give away something that one doesn’t need is not dana. Second, the act must not be condescending but must show respect to the one who receives the gift. In fact, one is grateful to the recipient who makes the act of giving possible. – Taitetsu Unno, “Three Grapefruits” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |
