Blue Mountain White Clouds Hermitage Priest
For Maezumi
Hi everybody. Don't know why but felt like writing this stuff this afternoon. You certainly know of course about Maezumi and the way he broke a few precepts big time. And although I don't agree at all with the way Brad thinks it is all OK, nothing coud be further from the truth, I have a very soft spot for Maezumi and refuse to judge the guy.
There is a great video if you want to have a look, it is about zazen, life and being who we are:

and this is the pompous and clumsy poem:
Sun-faced Buddha
Moon-faced Buddha
Obscured-yet-clear
The empty cloud
drifts
From a sake cup
to a woman's lips
From kids arms and giggles
to the silent fruit of sitting
it drifts
Clear-yet-obscured
Mistaken and true
the cloud
in him-you-me
The cloud
roams
the invisible old path
treeless, roadless,
the way of nobody
going nowhere
this
ever
changing
This
