Stillness Amidst Motion
In life's ceaseless motion,
A still stone remains unmoved.
"The moon and stars cannot be reached by any earthly endeavor;
and yet, in this vast emptiness of space they exist."
- Master Linji Yixuan
Breath pauses. Mind finds calm.
Stone's silence answers all questions.
Invisible Presence
A leaf floats without a breeze,
Unseen hands cradle it gently—
Presence felt deeply but unseen.
"When there is no thought, the stars and heavens are fully manifested."
- Master Wang Zong
Breath stills. Mind perceives.
Stone's essence remains ever-present yet hidden in plain sight—silent as nightfall.
