    Uchiyama on takuhatsu (begging)

    I came across this essay today by Uchiyama Roshi:

    Laughter Through the Tears: Kosho Uchiyama Roshi on Life as a Zen Beggar
    https://www.lionsroar.com/laughter-through-the-tears-kosho-uchiyama-roshi-on-life-as-a-zen-beggar/
    Kosho Uchiyama Roshi on the bittersweet life of a Zen beggar, translated by Daitsu Tom Wright and Jisho Warner.

      “Since, in any case, it’s just ordinary people who wage war on each other, everybody is wrong, friend as much as foe. The winner and the loser are in any case just ordinary people.
      It’s so sad to watch the world’s conflicts. There’s such a lack of common sense.​“ - Kodo Sawaki Roshi - To You (Page 66)

          The phrase 'a true person of no rank' springs to mind.
