“Things That Give a Clean Feeling
An earthen cup.
A new metal bowl.
A rush mat.
The play of the light on water as one pours it into a vessel.
A new wooden chest.”

“মন খারাপের মুহূর্তে হঠাৎ যদি কেউ হারিয়ে যাওয়া নাম ধরে ডেকে ওঠে, মনটা যেন লহমায় ভাল হয়ে যায়। সংসারের মালিন্য, বেঁচে থাকার জটিলতা, প্রাপ্তি-অপ্রাপ্তির হাহুতাশ কিছুই যেন আর স্মরণে থাকে না। বুকের ভেতর ঘুমিয়ে আছে এক টাইম মেশিন, সোঁ সোঁ করে ছুটতে থাকে সে, হু হু করে কমে যায় বয়স।”

“The idea of Zen is to catch lie as it flows. There is nothing extraordinary or mysterious about Zen. [...]. No wordy discussion is necessary, nor any explanation. I do not know why—and there is no need of explaining, but when the sun rises the whole world dances with joy and everybody's heart is filled with bliss. If Zen is at all conceivable, it must be taken hold of here.”

“Make sure to remember, every person and place has a right to exist. It is true for you too, the entire world, as a whole, is your home.”
