No Fear

Shared by Karla July 12th: Excerpt from Understanding Our Minds (formally Transformation At The Base) by Thich Nhat Hanh (Verse 50: No Fear)

When we realize that afflictions are no other than enlightenment,

we can ride the waves of birth and death in peace,

traveling in the boat of compassion on the ocean of delusion,

smiling the smile of non-fear.

Shortened during meditation to:

Afflictions are no other than enlightenment
riding the waves
in the boat of compassion

smiling the smile of non-fear.
