Zen teacher Lewis Richmond tells the story of hearing Shunryu Suzuki sum up Buddhism in two words. Suzuki had just finished giving a talk to a group of Zen students when someone in the audience said, “You’ve been talking about Buddhism for nearly an hour, and I haven’t been able to understand a thing you said. Could you say one thing about Buddhism I can understand?

After the laughter died down, Suzuki replied calmly, “Everything changes.”

Life is beautiful and the best part about it is this current moment. A lot of people who came before us would love to be here now.
