moonviewing
Quite the contrary
to what I’d thought, passing clouds
are sometimes simply
the moon’s entertainment,
its lovely decoration.

lotus
How mysterious!
The lotus remains unstained by its muddy roots,
delivering shimmering
bright jewels from common dew.
-Henjo (816- 890) was a Japanese waka poet and Buddhist priest.

“The more complex a being is, so our Scale of Complexity tells us, the more it is centered upon itself and therefore the more aware does it become. In other words, the higher the degree of complexity in a living creature, the higher its consciousness; and vice versa. The two properties vary in parallel and simultaneously. If we depict them in diagrammatic form, they are equivalent and interchangeable.“
–Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, The Future of Man–

Koitsu, "Full Moon at Akashi Beach" Ukiyo-e Woodblock Print
The spiritual aspect of ikebana (Japanese flower arranging) is considered very important to its practitioners. Silence is a must during practices of ikebana. It is a time to appreciate things in nature that people often overlook because of their busy lives. One becomes more patient and tolerant of differences, not only in nature, but also in general. Ikebana can inspire one to identify with beauty in all art forms. This is also the time when one feels closeness to nature which provides relaxation for the mind, body, and soul.
