ask

I found myself awake at 5am this morning. This gave me some time for a longer sit. My mind was pretty agitated so I asked for help. This always works, it is as if wisdom, bodhisattvas or God jumps right in and helps me generate compassion and calm.

This reminded me of the Pure Land buddhists who believe everyone is heading to the pure land regardless of their karma. They chant Namo Amita Bhutu and receive instantaneous help.
