Oryuji Temple is a Zen temple located 1,000 meters from my house. The natural forest is so mysterious.
Those days in Finland will always remind me of wonderful time we spent there. It was a period of contemplating the beautiful nature and relax in the fresh scented forests.
Thank you for all the comments and favs, my friends.
Not thinking about anything is Zen. Once you know this, walking, sitting, or lying down, everything you do is Zen.

Twin deep red, very small phaeums - crane's-bill geraniums, in perfect zen pose, absorbed in the moment, no space, no time, neither being nor non-being, just Is and Is-ness.Floral Satori, nirvikalpa samadhi in the plant world.....nothing to worry about, and no one to worry. At least that's what I see here :^)
And all that in our garden!! Chuckle.
The transcendental lighting, the deafening penetrating booming sound of interstate traffic passing overhead at midnight, on a hot summer night is a true ZEN experience.
Despite the presence of the Buddha Filou wasn't exactly ZEN, he rather waited for something exciting to happen. It was a rather boring Sunday, though, all the other cats opted for a power nap and the big outdoors wasn't really appealing as it remains cold and windy.

∎ The Four Candles
Four monks decided to meditate silently without speaking for two weeks. They lit a candle as a symbol of their practice and began. By nightfall on the first day, the candle flickered and then went out.
The first monk said: “Oh, no! The candle is out.”
The second monk said: “We’re not supposed to talk!”
The third monk said: “Why must you two break the silence?”
The fourth monk laughed and said: “Ha! I’m the only one who didn’t speak.”

The Japanese Garden at Meijer Gardens almost made me think I was once again in Japan. (landscape overview picture in the first comment below).
In Japan, the Nanzen-ji Zen garden that I visited in Kyoto (many years ago) most closely resembled the one constructed at Meijer Gardens. At Nanzen-ji, the Buddhist monks would rake the gravel each morning to make the appearance of "waves" lapping against the mountains/islands (the boulders in the garden).

It's getting to be that time of year when I'm very busy and consequently not here as much or posting as frequently. That said, I try to check my recent activity at least briefly every day and reciprocate my visitors' efforts. So if you're posting a lot and I'm not you can visit any of my other 800 items and I will in turn visit your new works.
Take care.
