“Estamos aqui para nos alinharmos com o dharma, o propósito da alma.
Esse alinhamento nos leva a manifestar as fragrâncias do Divino que nos
habita. O nosso mais profundo Eu se manifesta nesse alinhamento.
Alinhar-se com o dharma significa mover-se em direção ao propósito
maior, compreendendo que isso envolve também a aceitação do karma –
dharma e karma andam juntos. Por isso, se você está sempre brigando com
as situações que a vida lhe traz, esse alinhamento não é possível.”

"We are here to align ourselves with our dharma, our soul’s purpose. This alignment allows us to spread the fragranceof the Divine that inhabits us. Our deepest self also manifests through this alignment with our purpose. Aligning ourselves with ourdharma means moving towards a greater purpose, understanding that this also involves accepting our karma. Karma and dharmawalk hand-in-hand. If we are always fighting with the situations that life brings to us, we will not be able to create this alignment in our lives."

The
Zen poem, as I see it, functions much like the koan—it is just a point
of departure. The reader is eliminated, the ego drops, and what’s left
is just the farmer pointing the way with a radish.
