Where you fall down …

“In Genjokoan, Dogen writes, ‘Those who have great realization of delusion are buddhas.’ The place where you get to be Buddha, so to speak, is in delusion, and there’s plenty of that to go around. You get up where you fall down. You don’t get up somewhere else. It’s where you fall down that you establish your practice.”
