Paradox of the Poet
You may point to the stars with your finger;
But you finger is not the stars.
Take love:
The very act of naming love
To give it a name
Is to reduce it in meaning:
"Love is this; but it is not that."
"Love is A, B and C; but it is not X, Y or Z."
A tree really does not exist in the forest,
Because nouns exist nowhere.
Only on a blank sheet of paper can the nature
Of anything be truly accurate.
Language is the finger that points.
Some only see the finger;
Others see what lies beyond.

“Look at the stream. There are rocks in its way. Does it slam into them out of frustration? No, it simply flows over and around them and moves on. Be like the water and you will know what harmony is.”

道教の道士衣装です。
本当は全体に八卦が配置してあったり色が決まっていたり色々ルールがあると思うのですが、殭屍（キョンシー）映画のイメージで作りました。
映画は黄色ですが実際の道士さんが着てたのが赤だったので赤と、なんとなくかっこよさで黒も入れました。3色セットです。インナーは固定カラーです。
3年前に出したキョンシー衣装とあわせて遊んでもらえると嬉しいですｗ

Excerpt from www.thestar.com:
The temple, which opened officially on Aug. 8, is quite unlike anything seen in an area where monster homes proliferate. Occupying a restricted site on Steeles Ave. on Markham's southern edge, this remarkable structure hovers above the ground on one of the longest pre-stressed concrete cantilevers in North America.
Supported on an impossibly small number of rectangular columns, the temple is a one-storey building suspended several metres high.
As architect Brigitte Shim explains, parking requirements were the reason for such bold engineering, done by Toronto’s Blackwell and Bowick. Like most suburban cities, Markham is a City in a Parking Lot. Every element of its built environment is organized around the car and must have a minimum number of parking spots.
For the record, the Fung Loy Kok Institute of Taoism melds the teachings of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism to alleviate human suffering through community service and the cultivation of body and mind.
Though set back from the sidewalk, the building won’t be ignored. A row of Corten steel louvers reaches out from the exterior at an improbably sharp angle. The warmth of the rusted metal complements the raw concrete, both industrial materials but used here to evoke something quite different. This is, after all, a temple, whatever that means in the 21st century. Shim has attempted nothing less than to redefine what regulations refer to as a “place of worship.”

Chinese immigrants came in large numbers to Tasmania during the 1880s. Most of them arrived from Victoria, having worked in the prosperous goldfields that opened up there in the 1850s. Gold was discovered in Tasmania's north-east and tin mining also became a very important source of income for the community.
The original temples were small wooden buildings with a verandah as a portico, and aligned north-south.
This Taoist temple in the QVMAG in Launceston is reconstructed from actual temple remains from the 1880s. As the mining communities closed, items from each of the original temples found their way to Weldborough. This was the last Taoist temple closed in 1934.

It is believed that Wong Tai Sin rescues the dying, heals the wounded, and punishes all evil. Taoists also believe that he has the power to grant whatever is requested of him.
For that reason, thousands of visitors come to Wong Tai Sin Temple each year to have their fortunes told and to make a wish at the altar. They light "worship sticks" and shake a bamboo cylinder until a fortune stick falls out. The stick, which bears a number, is then exchanged for a piece of paper which bears the fortune of the worshipper. A soothsayer will interpret the writings on the paper. Those whose prayers are answered often return to give thanks to Wong Tai Sin, whose picture can be found near the main altar.

A detail of the Kwan Tai temple. The Chinese dragon symbolizes benevolence, prosperity, longevity and the renewal of life. The flaming pearl signifies the One, the Pole Star, and the original qi. This symbol is often found on the roofs of Taoist temples, between two dragons.

Einst träumte Dschuang Dschou, dass er ein Schmetterling sei, ein flatternder Schmetterling, der sich wohl und glücklich fühlte und nichts wußte von Dschuang Dschou. Plötzlich wachte er auf: da war er wieder wirklich und wahrhaftig Dschuang Dschou. Nun weiß ich nicht, ob Dschuang Dschou geträumt hat, dass er ein Schmetterling sei, oder ob der Schmetterling geträumt hat, dass er Dschuang Dschou sei, obwohl doch zwischen Dschuang Dschou und dem Schmetterling sicher ein Unterschied ist. So ist es mit der Wandlung der Dinge.“
Once upon a time, Chuang Tzu dreamed that he was a butterfly, flying about enjoying itself. It did not know that it was Chuang Chou. Suddenly he awoke, and veritably was Chuang Chou again. He did not know whether it was Chuang Chou dreaming that he was a butterfly, or whether it was the butterfly dreaming that it was Chuang Chou. Between Chuang Chou and the butterfly there must be some distinction. This is a case of what is called the transformation of things.

The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple and Museum is a Buddhist temple and museum complex located in the Chinatown district of Singapore. The temple is based on the Tang dynasty architectural style and built to house the tooth relic of the historical Buddha. The ground breaking ceremony was conducted on 13 March 2005. Costing S$62 million and 2 years later, a soft launch was held to coincide with the 2007 Vesak Day celebration. It is claimed that the relic of Buddha from which it gains its name was found in 1980 in a collapsed stupa in Myanmar. The relic can be viewed by the public at the 4th floor of the temple.
Since opening, the temple has become a popular attraction within Chinatown. Simple vegetarian fare is served in the basement of the temple, though donations are accepted.
