The observations and insights of the Buddha are plain and practical. And eminently down to earth. They deal only with the here and now. Steve Hagan - Buddhism Plain and Simple Buddhism Quotes 2What is Emptiness?The idea of nothing has bugged people for centuries, especially in the Western world. We have a saying in Latin, Ex nihilo nuhil fit, which means "out of nothing comes nothing." It has occurred to me that this is a fallacy of tremendous proportions. It lies at the root of all our common sense, not only in the West, but in many parts of the East as well. It manifests in a kind of terror of nothing, a put-down on nothing, and a put-down on everything associated with nothing, such as sleep, passivity, rest, and even the feminine principles. But to me nothing -- the negative, the empty -- is exceedingly powerful. I would say, on the contrary, you can't have something without nothing. Alan Watts - from alan watts.com Buddhism Quotes 3How to Find PeaceIgnorance is departure from home and Enlightenment is returning. While wandering, we lead a life full of pain and suffering, and the world wherein we find ourselves is not a very desirable habitat. This is, however, put a stop to by Enlightenment, as thus we are enabled once more to get settled at home where reign freedom and peace. D.T. Suzuki - from headless.org Buddhism Quotes 4How Valuable is Simplicity - Really?The simple person lives the way he breathes. With no more effort or glory, with no more affectation. Without shame....Simplicity is freedom. Buoyancy. Transparency. As simple as the air. As free as the air... The simple person does not take himself too seriously. Or too tragically. He goes on his merry way, his heart light. His soul at peace, without a goal. Without nostalgia. Without impatience. The world is his kingdom and suffices him. The present is his eternity and delights him. He has nothing to prove since he has no appearances to keep up, and nothing to seek since everything is before him.
