Four Noble Truth

There is Dukkha
There is this origin of dukkha
There is the cessation of dukkha
and the eight fold noble path to the cessation of dukkha

Is the trip fun? Is this food tasty?

I have problem answering such a questions.

I always answer "er...Ok" which result in people commeting that "You everything also ok."

I usually do not have opinions on things/events, to me mostly it is an experience.
Is this good or bad?

I have learn to let go on some things but this make relating with other people difficult.
Maybe I should learn to let go of this too. hmmm.

If the food is sweet it is sweet
If it is sour it is sour
If it is spicy it is spicy
If it is bitter it is bitter

Translation of the earlier poem

Part literal translation

《见与不见》—仓央嘉措活佛 Do I love
你见,或者不见我 Whether you see or not see me
我就在那里不悲不喜 I am here, neither sad nor happy
你念,或者不念我 Whether you think or not think of me 
情就在那里不来不去 My feeling for you is there, neither coming nor going
你爱,或者不爱我 Whether you love or not love me 
爱就在那里不增不减 Love is there, not more or less
你跟,或者不跟我 Whether you follow or not follow me
我的手就在你手里不舍不弃 My hand is in your hand, not forshaking nor leaving
来我的怀里或者让我住进你的心里 Embrace me or let me into your heart
默然 相爱 In quietness and love
寂静 欢喜 In stillness, joy

《见与不见》—仓央嘉措活佛

你见,或者不见我
我就在那里不悲不喜

你念,或者不念我   
情就在那里不来不去

你爱,或者不爱我   
爱就在那里不增不减

你跟,或者不跟我
我的手就在你手里不舍不弃

来我的怀里
或者让我住进你的心里

默然 相爱   
寂静 欢喜


一首情诗, 一个活佛
矛盾吧

Chasing my thought

I watch as thought arise and fall away.
Why do I chase after them knowing it is dukkha?
Such desire.
