Experience the deep stillness and peace that exist in your mind when there is no strong resistance to your thoughts and memories.

Where there is beauty, there is ugliness.

When something is right, 

Something else is wrong. 

Knowledge and ignorance

Depend on each other. 

It has been like this since the beginning. 

How could it be otherwise now? 

Wanting to chuck out one

And hold onto the other

Makes for a ridiculous comedy. 

You must still deal with everything

Ever-changing, 

Even when you say it’s wonderful.

Ryokan (1758-1831)
