Reflection

Greetings all,

As this life passes before us, hopefully we will stop and open the minds eye.

The pine tree’s voice is always whispering,

Yet how many pause to listen?

For when the churning mind is still,

The Diamond Heart within

Reflects even the falling dusk that

Shrouds every eye and branch,

And hears, but listens not.

Walking, then, with Courage and Kindness,

Never ceasing to walk in Wonder,

We follow our ancient path.

For the Way of the sword is folded two;

Like the rose we have thorns,

And like the rose, we unfold.

Ji Aoi Isshi

in peace,
gar
