“
The thing is that this life is so precious and mysterious,
I don’t know what to say about it most of the time.
Words are like birds, passing through the trackless sky.
The dog barking, the sound of the purling stream,
the windamong the weeping willow trees:
how are these not right off the tongue of the Buddha?”
–Lama Surya Das
