I Do Not Seek

Reading a Thoreau biography, we came across a following from Picasso:I do not seek. we find.The saying clears a middle ground in between effort as well as a effortless.
Picasso doesn't request us to find anything. (What is there to find if we already possess buddha nature?) But he also doesn't encourage us to brine in a stupor.
Between looking as well as not looking is a middle way: finding.
This, we think, is a way noted out by Gotama.
Where looking as well as not looking have been desperate activities organized by my own selective preferences, finding is a work of kenosis organized by a concretion of whatever already happens to be given.
There is work to be done. But it is not a work of seeking. It is a work of finding.Thank you from a Progressive Buddhism bloggers
