Zen is not some kind of excitement, but concentration on our usual everyday routine. – Shunryu Suzuki
To accept some idea of truth without experiencing it is like a painting of a cake on paper which you can not eat.
The world is its own magic.
When you do something, you should burn yourself up completely, like a good bonfire, leaving no trace of yourself.
In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert’s mind there are few.
Preparing food is not just about yourself and others. It is about everything!
Real practice has no purpose or direction, so it can include everything that comes.
