According to Buddha
To stay with that shakiness—to stay with a broken heart, with a rumbling stomach, with the feelings of hopelessness and wanting to get revenge—that is the path of true awakening. Sticking with that uncertainty, getting the knack of relaxing in the midst of chaos, learning not to panic—this is the spiritual path. Getting the knack of catching ourselves, of gently and compassionately catching ourselves is the path of the warrior. We catch ourselves one zillion times as once again, whether we like it or not, we harden into resentment, into a sense of relief, a sense of inspiration.

According to Buddha
And when you have the chance to stand somewhere where nobody’s watching you, and you can just look at people. I spend lots of time doing that. Like, I’ll sit in a car on a street and watch people go by. I’ll just look at each one as somebody who is an absolutely exquisitely articulated entity unfolding before my eyes. Then they walk off, never to be seen again probably.

According to Buddha
Once a very old king went to see an old hermit who lived in a bird’s nest in the top of a tree, “What is the most important Buddhist teaching?” The hermit answered, “Do no evil, do only good. Purify your heart.” The king had expected to hear a very long explanation. He protested, “But even a five-year old child can understand that!” “Yes,” replied the wise sage, “but even an 80-year-old man cannot do it.
we are the halluci nation
we are the human beings
the callers of names cannot see us but we can see them
we are the halluci nation
our dna is of the earth and sky
our dna is of past and future
we are the halluci nation
we are the evolution, the continuation

The shadow is the greatest teacher for how to come to the light.
coeur mécanique où sont tes piles?
perdu dans un monde, tout étranger
quelle est la raison pour tous ces mensonges
on a plus le droit de se renfermer

so just for a moment
