As I travel in this limitless world,
Where every step I take is my home.
~ Dogen
This means that if everything is infinite, there is no need for any “direction.”
Every slightest movement – a step, a look, a word, a gesture – has enormous bearing and meaning, only when one understands the hopelessness of living for whatever target.
All problems stem from the fact that one has been “away” from oneself…We have been away from our true Wholeness. That is, away from self-knowledge.
To heal consequently, is daring to abandon the false identity built on “distance from oneself”. It is to abandon the quest – allowing all goals and directions crumble -, and start paying choiceless but conscious attention to every slightest movement, being aware that every second is a wonder…
Our true home is Wonder…and the knowing of this makes us safe…
