When the mind is at peace, the world too is at peace. Nothing real, nothing absent. Not holding on to reality, not getting stuck in the void, you are neither holy nor wise, just an ordinary fellow who has completed his work. Layman P'ang

Paul, the poem 'When the mind is at peace', written by the Chinese Buddhist master Layman P'ang, aka P'ang Yun comes from the 'Enlightened Heart', an anthology of sacred poetry, chosen from the world's great religious and literary traditions, collected by Stephen Mitchell.
You've accompanied this poem in a very apt way by your fine photograph (or vice versa, 😁) !
A very good and thought provoking post again!

If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins! Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.

It is uncanny how you are able to join together your photographs and these words of wisdom ... Paul, you are truly gifted, and original.

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
