To all or none,

Knowing that when walking the path,he must,at every instant
annihilate his "I".He acquires a new consciousness, authentic,of his own death.This consciousness, must be accompanied by detachment.The thought of Death,instead of turning to an obsession
Becomes:Indifference.

Loong,dhamma warrior ,detached ,from Death.

To all or none,
The idea of Death ,is very important in Life.Without a clear vision on Death,there is no order,no balance,no Beauty.Warriors grind to acquire this perspective, so as to fully be conscious in the deepest part of their Mind,that nothing but nothing guaranties them ,that their lives will go on passed this NOW.
This consciousness, gives them the courage to be patient,but to act.Their consenting Courage,keeps them from being stupid in their actions

To all or none,
One must convince himself,that the only thing irrevocable,is Death.
We are creatures that will die,but yet we do not believe it.
Too bad ,because can you image what
can be done by someone that knows he is going to die and is fully consciencious about it.It is this idea that gives courage to the warrior.The courage of being cunning,without being proud,and
The courage to be invincible without being full of himself.

To all or none,

Man must understand that his evolution interests only himself.
No one else is interested.He must not expect help from nobody else.
You see, no one has to help him ,and no one wants to.

"Au contraire",the forces who opposes to the evolution of men,
Also oppose to his.It is to each person to counteract their acts.

To all or none,

A Warrior,loves uncoditionnally and in some way,he consecrates only on himself.Another oxymoron.Everything starts with him and ends with him.He follows his Path,and the contact with the Universe
forces him to annihilate ,his own importance,so the "I"becomes useless.

Too all or none,

Today ,I have an old Zen story that I learned or heard of in quite a while.

The mother of the Sensei of the biggest zen temple,visited him.
After looking the place over she says :You have made quite well my son!
The next day the Zenmaster left the temple ,to find the poorest and smallest one!!!!!!

That is a good story.

To all or none,

The warrior's main goal in life ,is to show the best of himself
Discipline helps him attain this goal.Real discipline has nothing
to do with the notion of obligation or authority.Discipline becomes a form of freedom.It comes from the capacity of living intensely
Giving him a knowledge and a wisdom to a better understanding
Of things.The warrior is not paralyzed anymore,when he thinks of what he has to do.He just does it.This requires vigilance,
determination,and a great desire.

Discipline is a powerful and obligatory,allie to help us through our path.

To all or none,
Again this is translated from French.

Union with what we love is suffering,separation from what we love is suffering,not getting what we crave is suffering.

In the craving and desire,life can only be suffering.

To all or none,
This is a translation from French.

What characterizes normal people is the fact that they possess
A metaphoric knife,hence the preoccupations of the auto contemplation.We wound ourselves with it,and we bleed;and the function of our chains of auto contemplation is that it gives us the feeling that we are bleeding together,and that we share a marvelous thing.our humanity.But if we would study individually
this phenomenum ,we would discover that WE BLEED ALONE.that we share nothing,that we play with our surreal image,we made,totally fabricated.

Loon'comment:I love this heavy stuff,it makes one think is he living only a surreal life(man's land)?
