Trust is perhaps the most difficult thing
To achieve, since everyone tells you lies.
Even your own thoughts and perceptions can
Tell you lies. How, then, can you trust?
Who can you trust? What can you trust?
I have learned a Buddhist secret about
Trusting that I will share with you.
It goes something like this:
Trust innocence, nothing else.
And what is innocence,
You might ask?
Innocence is the lack of
Self-consciousness
In all things;
It is beyond desire
And aversion,
It is the enlightened
Part of our nature.
It is best expressed, and most often seen
In enlightened Buddhist Masters.
Trust innocence: wherever
And in whoever and in
Whatever you may find
It, including, of
Course, in
Yourself.
