    50/108 Gates of Dharma Illimination

    The Fiftieth Gate

    The sense organs are a gate of Dharma illumination; for [with them] we practice the right way.

    Sense organs:

    Eye, Ear, Nose, Tongue, Body and Mind

    Whirling washing machine, shrilling cartoon on TV, humming road traffic.
    Hammering my head.
    Resistance to noise intensifies migraine.
    I sit Zazen.
    Body and mind flow.
    Whirling washing machine, shrilling cartoon on TV, humming road traffic.
    The sound of Silence.

    Gassho
    Sat

    Amid all that clamor, you find silence in Zazen; beautiful

    We meet the world through the senses, as the sensory world IS our world. Where else could we practice the Dharma?

    As we sense the world
    We live it
    Where else could we be?

    Our sense organs at least show us how to ask: Are we doing it right?
