    I sit on top of a boulder
    the stream is icy cold
    quiet joys hold a special
       charm
    bare cliffs in the fog
       enchant
    this is such a restful place
    the sun goes down
      and tree shadows sprawl
    I watch the ground
      of my mind
    and a lotus comes out
       of the mud
    The Collected Songs
      of Cold Mountain

Snake and Dragon Den

May 11th, 2006 by jack

Sometimes life is the pits. The dragon is sometimes a Buddhist symbol of enlightenment, but for the ordinary Buddhist, it’s sometimes hard to distinguish between dragons and snakes in the shadowy depressions. (Yeah. I know. Flames and legs are clues IF you can see them. But sometimes life just has this scaly feeling.)

This category is for the occasional “life sucks” type posting.
