The Principle of Identity - Part #1

Pine Wind Zen Community Audio

The Principle of Identity is cause in the matter of one's life. It not only creates the energy and space for possibilities but literally defines what is possible. Having a clearly defined "personal mission" or "vision" for one's life and, being unconditionally true to your "vision" creates the ground for long term well-being and happiness. "My vision for you and me is that we know ourselves and never forget again. That our lives be an expression of that knowledge, rather than an endless and unfulfilling effort to fulfill someone else's vision and arrive at the end of your life knowing that you lived someone else's life. I am convinced that all the world's problems are resolved based on this one principal, "To thine own self be true." - Seijaku Roshi
