Shunryu Suzuki

Having an open and empty mind, you are ready for anything. "In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities; in the expert's mind there are few." It takes time and practice to have an empty mind and a ready mind. The original mind is free from everything you think about and to let go all our thoughts we become more clam and serene.

"The mind which is always on your side is not just your mind, it is universal mind, always the same, not different from another's mind." Everyone has a beginner's mind, we always think, plan and know everything in its present form and color. This quote from the speech explains that in Buddhism our minds are not ours, everything and everyone exist together.
Becoming one with the mind is by doing sitting meditation and this was apart of Zen Buddhism called zazen. The mind becomes more peaceful, and ideally, with long practice, a state of awareness takes over and finds true nature with in yourself.

I feel that in this world today, everyone should do meditation. In a way it takes the stress and releases the mind into a form of relaxation, giving the mind to breath, to be free and clam. "Our throat is like a swinging door, the air comes in and goes out." Suzuki says in his speech that the inner world, when we inhale and the outer world, when we exhale, that both these are just one whole world. Our bodies and the outer world are one and both rely on the other, but we need to follow our breathing with in us so that the inner world of the mind and breathing become one.
