Take it from the Zen Master. He knows.” IfsThinkingKnowsMayHappinessPowerfulMastersBuddhismLetting GoWasteNobleHorribleWealthyWasting TimeTruthfulDemonicZen Master Author:Frederick Lenz

I am at peace with myself. I am at peace with the process of life.

“Can we just do this?” Ray asked tightly, clinging to Zheng’s already slightly elongated arm. Because Louis-Cesare wasn’t the only one with a master power around here. “Let go,” Zheng told him. “I’m the rubber band; you’re the spitball. And spitballs don’t hold on to rubber bands.” “Die in a fire,” Ray told him savagely. But he let go.” DiesFireMastersArmsBandLetting GoRaysClingingRubberRubber Bands Author:Karen Chance

“The real master is only a presence. He has no intentions of being a master. His presence is his teaching. His love is his message. Every gesture of his hand is pointing to the moon. And this whole thing is not being done, it is a happening. The master is not a doer. He has learned the greatest secret of life: let-go.

“Well, every man has a religion; has something in heaven or earth which he will give up everything else for - something which absorbs him - which may be regarded by others as being useless - yet it is his dream, it is his lodestar, it is his master.

“Woman is a violent and uncontrolled animal, and it is useless to let go the reins and then expect her not to kick over the traces. You must keep her on a tight rein . . .

Because she has let go of herself, she is perfectly fulfilled.” DesireDiesBornBehindsMastersLetting GoEternalAll ThingsInfiniteFulfilledTaoDetachedTao Ching Author:Laozi
