Cuz Batman Sez So . . . 



Listen to the Batman . . . 



The sage has said, "If you're too busy to spend a few minutes in daily meditation, then make that an hour."


* “In the state of mindfulness, your mind should look at both its going and staying. Other than that there is nothing else to cultivate. It suffices if awareness recognizes the nature of everything that arises. Apart from this you do not need to search somewhere else for more quality or clarity.… Don’t put aside what you have and look elsewhere for what you don’t have. Just watch the identity of awareness, no matter what it thinks or where it goes. Don’t give importance to whether the awareness is clear or not. Avoid stopping thought movement and pursuing stillness. Whatever stillness there is and no matter what arises, just sustain their natural flow at their own pace, without tainting it with alterations. Without allowing yourself to forget undistracted mindfulness even for a moment, persevere in maintaining its prevalence.”


I’m quoting this from . . . The Royal Seal of Mahamudra, Volume One: A Guidebook for the Realization of Coemergence by Khamtrul Rinpoche III


Takes some doing.


You are it here and now, but your vision is obstructed by your false ideas about your self. 
~ Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj



Sometimes it takes some "lip service" to cut through the lip service.



Because striving doesn't get you nowhere.


Batman channels Sankaracharya. Full on Advaita Vedanta mode. 


Batman's cuts the spiritual mumbo-jumbo.


Robin gets his goose cooked. Seasoned with Zen spice.


The end, and the beginning.
