Guest guest Posted June 7, 2001 Report Share Posted June 7, 2001 kensan....it would be so lovely to sit in zazen with you....we are one in spirit....it would nice to be one as brothers.....tessahara is the buddhist monastery in the ventana wilderness where i sometimes practice....^^~~~~ The Between Times, A Pilgrimage (Tessahara) As wind that whispers through the valley Gently lifting the wings of birds in flight May he who goes before us all guide us May she who comes after each one of us pick us up when we stumble or falter. On our pilgrimage from this place to that we recall that our journey is from there is here. To go is the same as is to remain. to remain is the same as is to go. It is in our end that we discover that which we have sought from our beginning. It is in the between time which exists after the end of our last prayerful breath, but before the beginning of the next that our frail hearts first hear the whisper of love. May she who comes after each one of us pickus up when we stumble or falter. May he who goes before us all guide us as wind that whispers through the valley, gently lifting the wings of birds in flight.
