The Universe And Its Beings

Old Dark Sleepy Pool... Quick Unexpected Frog Goes Plop! Watersplash!

Make The Universe Your Companion, Always Bearing In Mind The True Nature Of Things-mountains And Rivers, Trees And Grasses, And Humanity-and Enjoy The Falling Blossoms And The Scattering Leaves.

With Every Gust Of Wind, The Butterfly Changes Its Place On The Willow.

When Your Consciousness Has Become Ripe In True Zazen-pure Like Clear Water, Like A Serene Mountain Lake, Not Moved By Any Wind-then Anything May Serve As A Medium For Realization.

Calm And Serene The Sound Of A Cicada Penetrates The Rock.
