Alright, I've had enough time to party and enjoy my new success... now I need to catch up with my Little Zen Calendar... and you know? I think I'm actually going to pull a couple of cards today too :) Here we go:
Thursday, May 23rd
The Little Zen Calendar
With the ideal comes the actual, like
a box and its lid. In darkness there is light,
but you will not understand it by one-sided
darkness alone. In light there is darkness,
but you will not understand it by one-sided
light. The two go together like the sequence
of steps in a dance.
~ The Sandokai
Friday, May 24th
The Little Zen Calendar
Cocks crow
Dogs bark
This all men know.
Even the wisest
Cannot tell
Whence these voices come
Or explain
Why dogs bark and cocks crow
When they do.
~ Chuang-Tzu
Saturday, May 25th
The Little Zen Calendar
You knock at the door of Reality.
You shake your thought-wings, loosen
your shoulders,
and open.
~ Jelaluddin Rumi

To be the cause of your experience
You cannot experience yourself

until you've encountered
What You Are Not

Feel the freedom found in Oneness

The moon, the blossoms -
forty-nine years wasted
walking beneath them!
