But the point of practice is not to keep it so-called <i>here,</i> but to be able to carry the true eye, ears, nose, body and mind of Zen, everywhere." It was then that I stopped thinking and feeling that practicing in a monastery was superior to any other place. <br /><br />The very place where you are is the lotus land, without fail or pause. I know that you have the Mind not just to see It... feel It... Be It..., having had the honor to read the many words you have so eloquently written. Enjoy everything as everything has the opportunity to be enjoyed by You!<br /><br />Warm Smiles,<br /><br />~SeihoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
