I'm gonna get out and continue the burn-down clean-up I began last week . The wind storms have relented .... . I must work on the garden border which I anticipate to be a heavy drudgery since the soil is semi-super-saturated making its weight punishingly unwieldy . I gotta use the smallest long-handled spade I have because using the MAN'S-SIZE would limit the amount of time my old back can afford-- such is the true nature of old age .
I've yet to complete the entire formulation of "The Zen of Rock Rigging" --- >It< is all around me-- and yet ... . I've been stealing lines from the I Ching and setting them to task as {ribald} Wisdom --- the so-called "Thought of the Day" , in an Effort to introduce Spiritual Conduct to the general public --- I mean its' "OK" but ONLY "OK" . I KNOW Zen Master Seung Sahn would gently admonish me , "I want to read YOUR Zen, what do YOU say " .... . He's admonished me before .
I WANT to redefine Zen --- to bend It's Truth into a more Mystical Application of Material Spiritualization* ... . Elsewhere I have insisted that "I draw water, I carry wood" is a MYSTICAL Experience --- so it must be that >I chain an anchor, I move a rock< is the Same . I want there to be a thing called "Mystical Application", a 'thing' that makes everyday tasks and toils a Mystical Experience as well --- that there is DIVINITY within even the smallest day-to-day activity . CSN+Y lyric,, "We are Stardust, we are Golden" --- I want THAT .
