A Fathomless Foundation | October 2, 2014
Buddhism is fundamentally a path
of inquiry, a practice of looking at the mind’s tendency to cling, to
adhere to opinions, beliefs, memories, emotions, moods. This is a
remarkable foundation, because it’s fathomless. For as every moment
gives way to the next, we come face to face with an infinite freshness
of experience—a freshness that, if we have truly surrendered to the
practice, cannot be solidified into a doctrine.
- Noelle Oxenhandler, "Glass of Water, Bare Feet"
