One must be peaceful amidst all confusions.
Not seeking to pacify the confusions.
But their own minds are not calmed.
Seeking in the past were mistaken.
Ones are trying to seek ways and means to pacify everything else.
Trying to make the family peaceful.
Trying to keep quiet the confusing mind.
But … our minds are not peaceful.
Ones are trying to make the mind symptoms; the mind manners, peaceful.
Trying to keep peace in the family’s phenomena.
Trying to keep peace while confronting children’s phenomena.
Trying to keep peace of worldly phenomena and confusions.
But only our sole mind in the opposite is not peaceful.
When our mind is quiet, then observe the peaceful nature, quietly tranquil.
One must be peaceful amidst confusions.
Not to seek from different Dhamma centers, professors, different monks
for the sakes of calming the family’s disorders. It is not so, indeed.
Peaceful mind has been attained as a result of
not getting involved with such confusions;
not trying to pacify confusions and not getting involve with confusions.
They will peaceful by themselves.
Since the true nature is naturally peaceful; the true nature is not confusing.
Confusing things are impermanent and keep on changing.
But the nature that are not confusing, not rising and ceasing, unchangeable.
It is the peaceful nature naturally.
Both intrinsic and extrinsic nature of the mind possess the natural nature that is not rising, not ceasing, unchangeable,
peaceful, quiet, free and selfless, without both mind and heart.
It is quiet, deeply tranquil, reaching at the bottom of the heart.
It (suchness) lies in everyone, just only that
we are getting too involved and seeking too excessively,
craving for happiness, escaping from sufferings over excessively.
We have not discovered the existed nature
that is readily peaceful, quiet and free; unbound by any bondages.
There is no one to create such a state of that primordial nature that has already in existence.
We are overwhelmingly involved in covering them up till they are invisible.
Now then the mind confusions has totally disappeared,
it can be found the mind that is quiet, peaceful and tranquil, naturally in existence.
It is neither seeking nor creating; it has already been there.
But we are overly concerned, thus this makes it totally hidden.
Then we will learn that in the past we have taken the wrong path;
but it turns out a very important lesson.
If one learns to live with one’s peace of mind, this will become one’s life’s abiding.
Peace of mind is as life’s abiding.
Keep the quiet mind within the confusing mind.
Mind can be peaceful; to access to the peaceful mind that is naturally peaceful.
As a result of letting go the mind manners to keep on confusing,
but not to get involved with them.
Wishing you, your peace of mind as your life’s abiding,
only a peaceful mind not a misunderstanding
to escape from worldly confusions to cling on a quiet mind instead.
That is to keep a peaceful mind to the extent that knowing everything.
Let go everything. Let it arise and pass away,
coming and going,
not to cling on to anything.
