Do It Anyway - 09-26-21 by Sokuzan - SokukoJi.org

This is something I often say when someone runs into difficulty. It’s not an order, it’s something to consider. True devotion is not about obedience. If someone is trying to get control of you, red flags should go up everywhere. There’s only one authority and you’re it. Progress is materialism, and on the spiritual path progress is invisible. The idea is to encourage you to proceed, to help you be who you are, be genuine. Do it anyway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MtnaKvr5Zk
