-------------------- Bassui wrote the following letter to one of his disciples who was about to die:
"The essence of your mind is not born, so it will never die. It is not an existence, which is perishable. It is not an emptiness, which is a mere void. It has neither color nor form. It enjoys no pleasures and suffers no pains.
"I know you are very ill. Like a good Zen student, you are facing that sickness squarely. You may not know exactly who is suffering, but question yourself: What is the essence of this mind? Think only of this. You will need no more. Covet nothing. Your end which is endless is as a snowflake dissolving in the pure air."
Learning to love life by living through loss and mistakes
Lessons learned then gradually surfacing, Letting go, stripping naked to scream
I am not perfect nor do I strive to be, I am alive in this world of face first falls and public breakdowns
I'm a retarded, disfigured clown
Dying to be heard through the simple art of letting this heavy wall finally fall
I'm an equal being of no race, or color, a hallucination if you will
Sneaking into the lives of strangers, and letting them fall apart to a new rhythm just to feel better
"Tie-dye with the Stones tongue and an LSD hit on it? That's wild. I haven't seen one like that for a while already. But for those who are looking for them, you might want to check out sites like Redbubble, Teepublic, or Etsy for unique t-shirts. Speaking of cool gear, have you thought about custom beanie hats by Mato & Hash? They're pretty neat too and you can get them in different designs and colors. It's a great way to show off your style and stay warm. You can even find some sites where you can create your own designs."
