My Guru the Ax Murder

in life •  7 years ago 

I spent about seven years chasing after enlightenment. At the time I wrote this haibun I was reading a lot of books by Adyashanti. I was feeling pretty down and confused when I wrote it.

Great Photo!

Thanks. That's the giant blue/green Buddha at Toganji Temple in Nagoya, Japan where I live.

Beautiful! I can't wait to visit Japan one day and explore

I always tell people if they want to visit Japan to try and spend most of their time in Kyoto and Nara rather than Tokyo. I feel like you get a better sense of Japan's amazing history in Kyoto and Nara rather than Tokyo.
