THE LITTLE ZEN COMPANION
It's a celebration of intuition: If a man wishes to be sure of the road he treads on, he must close his eyes and walk in the dark -St. John the Cross. Individuality: Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the men of old; seek what they sought. -Basho. Uncomplicated nature: Among twenty snowy mountains/The only moving thing/Was the eye of the blackbird. -Wallace Stevens. Childlike spontaneity: Goodnight stars. Goodnight air. -Margaret Wise Brown. Irreverent paradox: Wakuan complained when he saw a picture of bearded Bodhidharma: 'Why hasn't that fellow a beard?' And above all, the simple pleasure of life lived in the moment. Chop wood, carry water.
