For him who forgets the words in silence, reality comes clearly to light. He who attains quiet awakening belongs to our tradition.
Quiet awakening climbs right up to the highest peak and down to the lowest depth.
– Wanshi Shogaku

The changing seasons never rest,
A year passes, and a year comes.
For all living beings there is blossoming and decay,
The Nine Heavens alone know no decay.
When it dawns in the east, darkness awaits already in the west.
The blossoms fall – new blossoms burst open.
Only the people travelling to the Yellow Springs,
Go into deep darkness and do not return.
Hanshan

The rapid stream does not carry away the moon.

The cosmic order is always there.
