What is the wonderful Way? It's simply
the Way that we practice every day.
The Buddha can perceive the amount of goodness and
evil in each living being's disposition. He also knows whether a
living being's desires are many or few. Knowing this, the Buddha
taught living beings a variety of wonderful ways to practice. What
is the wonderful Way? It's simply the Way that we practice every
day. The Way that we practice, use, and experience every day is
wonderful. If we don't look into it carefully, we won't perceive
its wonder. But careful scrutiny will reveal how everything is
wonderful beyond words. For instance, where do the things we use
every day come from? Their origin is wonderful. Where do they go?
That is wonderful too. In either case, it's the wonderful Way. The
events of our daily life are also the wonderful Way. Their wonder
lies in the fact that we don't understand them. If we understood,
it would be wonderful. Since we don't understand, it's
un-wonderful. |
