To Make Enough  ~~Zacciah Blackburn 02.02.2018
Much wisdom around these illusions of separation also speak
to that suffering that arises from our attachments, not just to objects, but
even more to outcomes. When our beliefs
and expectations of how things are, should be, or are going to be, are attached
to a particular perspective or outcome, this is most often when we become
disappointed, and thus our grief and sorrow, or other encumbered thoughts and
feelings arise. When we put this in perspective, we empower ourselves to
make more clear observations, and rest in the ‘inner jewels’ of stillness,
silence, or spaciousness, from which inner wisdom can arise, free of sorrow or
illusion, simply witnessing what is. Another even more empowering aspect of this wisdom arises
from the earlier teachings of Buddhist The empowering point in this realization is the very nature
of “satisfaction.” For, to ‘satisfy’ is
to ‘make enough.’ (Webster) Within the very meaning of the word is the
very solution for the outcome. In order
to be satisfied, we must ‘make enough.’
And, while, in the end, the Buddhist wisdom is that we are already whole
and complete, in the passage to that realization, it can be quite empowering to
take responsibility for the outcome.
And, this is where we learn to ‘make enough.’
(You can join with me, now, in this practice, as a guided meditation, as you continue to read, or after reading the balance of this article and practice.) Let me at this moment, turn to those ‘inner jewels’ of
silence, space, or stillness, resting in the inner sanctum of my heart, until I
can experience and generate, recognize or allow, one of these inner jewels,
bring it into a state of completion. Let
me pick one. For now, I choose to rest
in stillness. You may choose
another. But I, in this moment, choose
to step into the inner sanctuary of the heart, and for this moment, I choose to
feel, experience, or generate a felt sense of stillness. I rest in that stillness. If another thought or feeling arises, without
effort, I recognize and honor it, but draw it into the inner sanctuary of stillness,
focusing my mind on the nature of stillness, recognizing or generating it from
within, and I simply watch the other thought or emotion dissolve in the
wellspring of stillness. I recognize
that some of my commentary may indicate an action, which is contradictory to
resting in stillness. But it is a method
of creating safe passage into the ever broadening perception of the sanctuary,
the ‘jewel’, of stillness. It is the attention placed upon stillness that generates the
jewel. I have space in my heart sanctuary, at this moment, for
nothing but stillness. If something else arises, I draw it into the heart
sanctuary, and watch the other dissolve in the mercy and beauty of the state of
stillness in which I reside, in this moment. Each moment, I am but resting in stillness, insuring in my
inner sanctuary, this is where I reside.
In this inner sanctuary, with the wisdom that arises from
resting in either of these jewels, I can realize I have the right, the
responsibility, and the power to generate the love, life force, or wisdom to feel
complete, to meet this life situation or challenge, to find satisfaction from
within my own wellspring of being (which is now realized as a part of All
Life.) I am whole, complete, or, in the
least, now recognize that I have the power and wisdom to So, if I don’t feel loved, I generate love. If I feel betrayed, I generate compassion. If I feel fear, I generate strength and insight. Whatever my inner perception might be that does not generate
satisfaction or fulfillment, from within this empowered place of perception,
observation, and choice for action, I can make mindful direction to my life, to
bring me to that place of completion.

There arises wisdom from within the Tibetan Buddhist
traditions, which reminds us that, ultimately, all of our healing must come
from within.
wisdom in Tibet, where the teachings
focused more on ‘satisfaction’ than on ‘attachment’.
If I am not feeling whole or complete, if I am wallowing in
a state of loneliness or despair, if I am suffering from wounds or violations,
if I am residing in fear, isolation, separation, loss or grief, unworthiness,
etc., if I am able to realize the ultimate responsibility for my satisfaction
is to ‘make enough,’ to self-generate, then I am on the path to wholeness,
completeness, satisfaction.
If I have a larger life situation, which does not feel whole
or complete, I can now intentionally draw that life situation into this
sanctuary of stillness, to witness it, gain wisdom from viewing it from this
inner sanctuary, find action of how to address it in my daily life from a place
of pure or clear perception, (and the pure actions that, thus, arise from that,)
or, I can simply dissolve it in this immense well spring of stillness.
generate that which
shall make me whole and complete.
It may require action in the outer world, or it may simply
be resting in these inner states of realization and completion.
