Watching A Mind

As a leaf is falling on the tea,

a mind is rising above the teabowl.

Why, all the mountains and rivers is A Mind,

and the Mind is but a shadow of the cause and occasion.

A White Lotus of Jung-Su was only intricate with paper and pens.

8/20/2002. at noon.

One day in the beginning of autumn,

I visited a small Buddhist hermitage.

And a Buddhist nun gave me a bowl of tea.

When I touched bowl, I felt it too hot and the bowl almost fell.

I could see a consciousness (the processing procedures of information in the brain)

was rising from the touch.

At that time, an idea struck me that the calm scene was also the

expression of the mind, accidentally.

But the mind was unexplainable with paper and pens, as one Buddhist

priest had tried before.
