Zen course 12, final thought
Final thought:
Fire inside, wind to guide, water flows, in the earth, grows.
Remain still in mind, like a mountain, immovable. Understand your form like a beginner, improvable.
Honor those before, show respect to those around, demonstrate compassion to those yet to step foot on sacred ground. Be courageous in the face of adversity, always present yourself with utmost integrity. Your commitment and your loyalty have made you that much more wise, all the while aiming for no mind.
You’ve developed an understanding on zen, history, and warriors like Musashi Miyamoto, the next time I see you will be in the dojo.
