following nature's path to attain enlightenment
"Working with plants, trees, fences and walls,
if they practice sincerely
they will attain enlightenment."
~ Dogen ~
Little did we know we were actually creating a small zen garden with our Japanese lantern and a bed of beautiful *friendship* rocks from our beach walks. I just looked up "Dogen" and was fascinated by his description!
"Sect Founder and Universal Philosopher. Zen master Dōgen (1200–1253) was the founder of the Sōtō sect, one of the five major denominations of Japanese Buddhism that spread rapidly in medieval Japan and remains an important religious movement in modern society."
Happy Fence Friday, Everyone!
Can't believe the weekend is already upon us!
