enlightenment is like the moon...
    #5376853 - 03/08/06 08:41 AM (17 years, 10 months ago)

I always get these emails from beliefnet, and usually delete them, and wonder why I dont unsubscribe.. but then i get messages like these, which always puts a smile on my face

Quote:

A person getting enlightened is like the moon reflecting in the water. The moon does not get wet, the water is not disturbed. Though it is a great expanse of light, it reflects in a little bit of water; the whole moon and the whole sky reflect even in the dew on the grass; they reflect even in a single drop of water. Enlightenment not disturbing the person is like the moon not piercing the water. A person not obstructing enlightenment is like the dewdrop not obstructing the heavens.




- founder of Japanese Zen, Eihei Dogen (1200-1253), from the book Genjokoan or "Flowers Fall"
