Buddhist concepts, doctrine and traditional practices can seem daunting and nearly impossible to work into our busy and challenging lives. But what the Buddha taught — and what has been reinforced and highlighted in Shinnyo Buddhism — is simple: Use our daily lives as practice. One way to unlock blessings and joy — and to be able to share it — is to listen, not with our ears and minds, but with your hearts. Join me as we dig into this and uncover how to use our hearts to create a better world around us.

Having suffered some health issues recently, I lost my center and focus — I became focused on my suffering and my inability to take action as I had previously. With help, I was able to get out of this negative self-focused, self-referential thought pattern and recognize that the suffering itself is the teacher and the lesson. Exploring this, I was able to get a deeper understanding of Equanimity — embracing and accepting everything and everyone just as they are. Without distinction. This was something to hold on to, something I can use to start going forward again, being altruistic in all actions, words and thoughts. And taking these steps, gratitude for life and all it brings welled up in my heart.

Facing an imminent meeting with someone to whom I had a grudge, I decided I was no longer willing to carry the weight and negativity of old grudges — the one against this person or any of my more than several grudgees. By looking at how a grudge is fixed in our hearts and minds, we’re able to find an antidote! On the way, we can discover what in Buddhism is called “suchness” and re-focus negative energy for the good of others with our altruistic actions.
