Zen Tarot Card

If you have found your truth within yourself there is nothing more in this whole existence to find. 
Truth is functioning through you. When you open your eyes, it is truth opening his eyes. 
When you close your eyes, it is truth who is closing its eyes.

This is a tremendous meditation. If you can simply understand the device, you don't have to do anything; whatever you are doing is being done by truth. You are walking, it is truth; you are sleeping, it is truth resting; you are speaking, it is truth speaking; you are silent, it is truth that is silent.

This is one of the most simple meditation techniques. Slowly, slowly everything settles by this simple formula, and then there is no need for the technique. When you are cured, you throw away the meditation, you throw away the medicine. Then you live as truth - alive, radiant, contented, blissful, a song unto yourself. Your whole life becomes a prayer without any words, or better to say a prayerfulness, a grace, a beauty which does not belong to our mundane world, a ray of light coming from the beyond into the darkness of our world.

Osho   The Great Zen Master Ta Hui   Chapter 23

Commentary:

The Inner Voice speaks not in words but in the wordless language of the heart. It is like an oracle who only speaks the truth. If it had a face, it would be like the face at the center of this card - alert, watchful, and able to accept both the dark and the light, symbolized by the two hands holding the crystal. The crystal itself represents the clarity that comes from transcending all dualities.

The Inner Voice can also be playful, as it dives deep into the emotions and emerges again to soar towards the sky, like two dolphins dancing in the waters of life. It is connected with the cosmos, through the crescent-moon crown, and the earth, as represented by the green leaves on the figure's kimono.

There are times in our lives when too many voices seem to be pulling us this way and that. Our very confusion in such situations is a reminder to seek silence and centering within. Only then are we able to hear our truth.

如果你在你裡面找到了真理,那麼在這整個存在裡就沒有更多的東西可以去找尋了。真理透過你來運作。當你睜開眼睛,那是真理在睜開它的眼睛;當你閉起眼睛,那是真理在閉起它的眼睛。

內在的聲音不是用語言表達的,而是用內心的無言來表達。它就好像是神諭一樣,只說出真理。如果它有一個臉,它一定會像這張卡中間的那張臉一樣,是很警覺、很覺知,能夠同時接受光和黑暗。它以雙手握住水晶來作為象徵,水晶本身代表清晰,那個清晰來自超越所有的二分性。

內在的聲音也可以是遊戲的,因為它潛入感情,然後再浮現出來而遨向天空,就好像是兩隻海豚在生命之水中跳舞。它透過半鉤月的皇冠跟宇宙連結著,同時也跟大地連結,由圖片上人物所穿著的日本和服上面的綠葉來代表大地。

在我們的人生當中,有時候好像會有太多的聲音把我們拉到這裡又拉到那裡。在這種情況下,我們的混亂正好可以提醒我們去追求寧靜和歸於內在的中心,唯有如此,我們才能夠去聽我們的真理。
