Difference Between Freedom And No Freedom

 

Look at a bird trapped in a cage.

The caged bird does not have freedom.

 

Look at a bird flying in the sky.

The bird flying in the sky has freedom.

 

Human mind is like a bird cage.

Human lives in the cage of his mind that he himself has made.

Therefore, he does not have freedom.

 

Like birds flying in the sky,

if human eliminates the bird cage of the mind that entraps his self

and becomes the mind of the blue sky,

his mind can become infinitely free and happy

because there are no confinements and restrictions.

Nature

 

The crystal clear river flows silently

Water flows from high to low without fail

The water has fish according to its environment

One must exist for the other

Everything comes forth on its own according to condition

Everything disappears on its own according to condition

Even though millions of things come and go

Everything is the origin of the universe itself

People do not know that

Great nature, which never disappears, is the master

People do not know that

The sky, which is great nature and emptiness, is the master

They do not know this

Because they do not have the sky in their minds

This sky is omnipotence and omniscience, itself

Everything is the embodiment of the sky

 

Because the sky is living

It brings forth all creations

Thus, it is omnipotent

There is nothing one cannot know

With the wisdom of the sky, God

Thus, it is omniscient

It is not about knowing the tales of human beings

But about knowing

The laws of the origin of great nature, the origin of the universe

Knowing and becoming the sky is the foundation of wisdom

Great nature is life as the embodiment of the sky
