Morning everyone! How is your busy day?now, i just want to share with you "the moon water " the history of japanese hope you like it.
What is the meant by the moon water?
This explain variously in the various schools, but the main idea is to grasp the way the moon reflects itself wherever tbere is a body of water, which is done in a state of mushin. here is the poems composed of at the pond of hirosawa..
"The moon had no intent to cast its shadow anywhere, nor does the pond design to lodge the moon: how serene the water of hirosawa!
From this poem one must get insight into the secrets of mushin.where there are no traces of artificial contrivance, everything being left no nature itself.
Again, it is like one moon reflecting itself in hundreds of streams, the moonlight is not divided into so many shadows but the water is there to reflect them.the moonlight remain ever the same even where there ate no waters to hold its reflections. Again, it is all the same to moonlight whether there are so many bodies of water, or there is just one little puddle. By this analogy the mysteries of mind are made easier to understand. But the moon and water are tangible matter, while mind has no form and its working is difficult to trace. The symbols are thus not the truth, only suggestive.
Thanks everyone! Always pray and tc.. ❤❤
Nice
