Hello everybody,

I just read a talk of Dogen, I wanted to share it with you, in this moment of Ango when we sit a little more. This is what he says about sitting:

"A flower blooming on a monk's staff has merit.
Smiling on our sitting cushions, there's nothing lacking"
Discourse 531 Eihei Koroku.

Even sometime someone can feel difficult to seat more (I'm concerned too) , Dogen reminds us that more than nothing to achieve, in this Buddhahood we can enjoy all. A kind of encouragement I felt reading this (just a feeling not commenting)

Good Ango and practice

Yang Hsin

Thank you, :)

(Crying on our sitting cushions, nothing is lacking either!)
