If You Meet the Buddha, Kill Him — The Zen Truth That Destroys Spiritual Ego | Zen teachings of Linji Yixuan

This is one of the most misunderstood statements in the entire history of spirituality.

When Linji Yixuan said,
“If you meet the Buddha, kill the Buddha,”
he was not calling for violence.
He was declaring war on spiritual dependency.

The moment you cling to an image of Buddha,
a concept of enlightenment,
a memory of truth,
or a borrowed authority —
you are no longer free.

Zen is ruthless here.

Buddha is not a person to worship.
Buddha is not a statue to protect.
Buddha is not a belief to defend.

Buddha is direct seeing.

And the moment Buddha becomes an idea in your mind,
that idea becomes an obstacle.

Linji’s statement is a surgical strike against:
– spiritual idols
– second-hand wisdom
– borrowed certainty
– and ego hiding behind holiness

The real danger is not ignorance.
The real danger is thinking you already know.

Zen does not want followers.
It wants awake human beings.

Kill the Buddha means:
Kill the authority outside you.
Kill the image inside you.
Kill the comfort of borrowed truth.

Only then does reality reveal itself — raw, alive, immediate.

Truth does not need protection.
It needs perception.

And perception happens only when nothing stands in between.



📜 Original Source (Historically Accurate, Interpretation-Safe)

Zen teachings of Linji Yixuan,
recorded in The Record of Linji (Linji Lu) —
a classical Zen text emphasizing direct realization,
non-attachment to forms, and freedom from spiritual authority.

Modern interpretive explanation aligned with core Zen principles of non-clinging and immediacy.

Love this perspective

I’ve drastically changed my view of squares in relationships over the last few months. What I used to see as a ‘red flag’ in synastry I now see as fun and dynamic.

The Aries-Cancer square can be a challenging one, as they have different priorities which can often clash:
Cancer wants safety
Aries wants adventure
Cancer wants to stay at home, in the nest
Aries wants to take on the world

In some ways, as far as thecardinal cross is concerned, Aries has more to do with Capricorn, both are ambitious and love a challenge, and Cancer has more to do with Libra, these two are more gentle, and prefer not to ‘stir the pot’

But the dynamism between Aries and Cancer can be especially fun when Aries shows up in a woman and Cancer in a man, as the traditional gender role reversal feels like a kind of ‘mutual reception’ in itself 😉

Aries–Cancer pairings often work because they are not actually fighting for the same role. Aries women tend to be more comfortable occupying the active, directive, and outwardly assertive side of the relationship. They move first, decide quickly, and tend to meet life head-on. Challenge energizes them. Conflict clarifies things. They are not afraid of heat, pressure, or friction, and they often feel most alive when they are leading, initiating, or pushing into new territory.

Cancer men, by contrast, are usually operating from a different axis of strength. While many are competent, organized, and capable in business or public life, their core orientation is relational. They are protectors, stewards, and emotional anchors. Home, family, loyalty, and continuity matter deeply to them. They tend to read emotional weather instinctively and often take on the role of holding space, stabilizing, and nurturing, even if they do not use that language themselves.

When these two come together, the dynamic can feel like a reversal of cultural expectations, but astrologically it is coherent. You often see an active feminine principle paired with a receptive masculine one. In intimacy and day-to-day life, this can look like a confident, initiating woman and a man who finds meaning in care, responsiveness, and emotional attunement. It is not about weakness or dominance for its own sake. It is about polarity. Each partner gets to lean into what they naturally do well, and when that balance is respected, the relationship can feel both grounding and electric at the same time.

I love my work with Astrology + HD + GK

Reading people’s charts, seeing what’s alive for them currently, I love being able to drop in so deep with people in such a short time.
To see the lightbulb ‘aha’ moments, and to witness people relaxing into a deeper acceptance of who they are.

I often come out of a session feeling deeply satisfied, knowing that my skills and gifts are well received and appreciated and that the service I am offering is genuinely beneficial for people.

I could make a whole podcast on Lilith. One day I will.
For now, this is a BRIEF overview of ASTRONOMY of the 3 Liliths. As for the MEANING, Demetra George says:

“The Asteroid Lilith describes the first stage in the mythical journey where she is suppressed, humiliated and flees in a fiery rage to the desolate wilderness. The Dark Moon Lilithdepicts the pain of her exile where she plots and executes revenge. The Black Moon Lilith shows how she transmutes her distorted image back into its natural healthy expression”

I personally have only fu**ed with Black Moon Lilith, (or rather, she has fu**ed with me)…?!

I only use the ‘True Node’ calculation when looking at a birth chart. Yes, her position is wild, erratic, incredibly hard to predict or pin down - but that’s exactly the point.

“Without cultivating inner peace, there can be no outer peace…
You can’t realise it (peace) in the world until you can see it, until you can have an idea of what it is like to live in a world where people are truly respectful of each other, and they truly listen to each other.
Those two things are absolutely necessary for there to be any kind of global peace.
But I believe in global peace, and I’m looking forward to it.”
- Kathryn Kingston channeling DK on ‘Just Tap In’ Podcast

For the last two months, the South Node in Virgo has been activating Human Design Gate 6: Conflict.

As the South Node sweeps backwards through the zodiac in an 18 year cycle, it is emptying out Karma. Bringing up old patterns in order for them to be released. To be purged.

Collectively, we have been purging out the shadow of conflict.

The higher octave of Conflict, in the Gene Keys, is Diplomacy.

The Siddhi is Peace.

The Shadow contains the Seed for the Siddhi.

The South node will continue to activate this gate until June 13.

What more can we release in terms of this energy of conflict?

How can we be truly respectful to each other and listen to each other?

Can we See the Seed of Peace in the Shadow of the Conflict in Gaza?

Can we water this seed of Peace?

Where attention goes, energy flows.

May we water the seeds of Peace with our attention/energy 🙏💦✌️

“Suicide season” is almost over…

Saturn in Pisces for the last 2.5 years has been a slippery slope for many.
(Think last 🪐♓️: 1994 Kurt Cobain)

How long can we really practice being in the soup of the unknown without swimming into dubious territories?

Saturn is work. Pisces - ‘I’m a Believer’

We’ve been working on our:

Psychic boundaries ❌
Spiritual hygiene 🪥
Not getting possessed 👻
Emotional boundaries 🙅‍♂️
Ability to flow 🌊
Trust in the Divine 😇
Belief structures 🇻🇦
Anchoring in the desired frequencies 👌

And in TWO DAYS, Saturn will be in ARIES

Halef**kinluyah 😅🥳

Cardinal Fire 🔥

Time to work on:

Boldness💪
Being a winner 🏆
Single pointed focus 🎯
Creation of the self 🤩
Controlling our impulsiveness ✋
Discipline 🫸🤛
Fighting for what we want 🤺

Aries people are Pirates. Truly. They do what they want. There’s a brash, impulsive, ‘I don’t give a f**k’ness about them which I love and hate all at once. They’re unashamed of being them.

So with Saturn in Aries, we’re working on ourselves.
And with that might come some restrictions and blockages and challenges to work through in this journey of claiming your place in the Sun.

Be Bold, friends 🔥 ❤️

An interesting take on Pluto in Aquarius. Here’s some snippets:

“On the positive side, it is going to lead to a global community”

“Technology is coming, we can’t ignore that. So, you either use it or you get used by it”

“…interface between soft technology and the human genome…”

“One thing is certain: We’re all, at some stage in our lives, going to come to the end of our physical life and leave our physical body. And that in**ed fear of mortality, of death, is a very scary prospect to many people. But what if, it’s just a fallacy? What if we’ve been force fed this dogma by ‘the old men in skirts’ who just want power…”
