“It Seems So, Yet It Is Not So”

There is a Zen saying: “It seems so, yet it is not so; it is not so, yet it is just so.”

This is exactly what we need to keep in mind, and to reflect on and contemplate often, as we meet the many different things of everyday life.

Do not rush to judge, comment, criticise or praise… but contemplate them, take note of them and reflect on them in accordance with the true Dharma.
