98/108 Gates of Dharma Illumination

[Shokai]

The Ninety-eighth Gate

The practice of the balanced state of dhyāna is a gate of Dharma illumination; for it fulfills the ten powers.

Dhyāna :
A deep awareness of oneness (prajna paramita)which is inclusive of perception of body, mind, senses and surroundings, yet remaining unidentified within the meditation.

The oneness of the absolute provides perspective, but we must continue to keep one foot in the relative world, for it takes two feet to walk (figuratively speaking, of course... ;) ).


Within each raindrop
The wisdom
Of infinite seas
