artistic growth is, more than anything else,
a refining of the sense of truthfulness.
the unwise believe that to be truthful is easy;
only the artist, the great artist, knows how difficult it is.

the tao master

after reading this to the yoga classes at a wing ..
i received many a note for quip & author..
here ye be ~

a taoist master was sitting naked 
in his mountain top cabin, meditating.
a group of confucianists entered the door of his hut,
having hiked up the mountain
intending to lecture him on the rules of proper conduct.

when they saw the sage sitting naked before them,
they were shocked, 
and asked,
"what are you doing,
  sitting in your hut
  without any pants on?"

the sage replied,
"this entire universe is my hut.
  this little hut is my pants.
  what are you doing inside my pants?
                      ~ james n. powell

may the tao be with you..
pants or no pants!

~ schedule change ~

nothing is permanent:
the sun and the moon rise and then set,
the bright, clear day is followed by the deep, dark night.
from hour to hour, everything changes.
                           ~ kalu rinpoche

bright blessings this wednesday AM..
have made the exec decision to pull
9 AM wednesday morning class from our schedule..
it was going to fall away when spring arrived..
hey! i predict an early spring -

please share the news with those you know..
a wing will have a new schedule printed
soon to reflect the changes..

IMPERMANENCE IS A PRINCIPLE OF HARMONY.
WHEN WE DON'T STRUGGLE AGAINST IT,
WE ARE IN HARMONY WITH REALITY.
                          ~ pema chodron

enjoy the path..
it leads to bliss !

watermelon sugar.....

watermelons and zen students
grow pretty much the same way.....
long periods of sitting
until they ripen..
and grow all juicy inside...
yet ~
when you knock them on the head
to see if they are ready..
sounds like there's nothing going on...
empty!

heart sutra sit 
SUNDAY, JANUARY 12th
      4-6 PM
come, come!


always recognize the dreamlike qualities of life.
reduce attachment & aversion.
practice good-heartedness toward all beings.
be loving & compassionate,
no matter what others do to you.
what they will do will not matter so much
when you see it as a dream.
the trick is to have a positive intention
during the dream.
this is the essential point.
this is true spirituality.
           ~ chagdud tulku rinpoche

....in three words 

i can sum up

i've learned about life:

it goes on.
