    Four Words

                    Thank you.

                    Reminded me a bit of this:
                    Saying that this mirror “has no blurs on the inside or the outside” neither describes an inside that depends on an outside, nor an outside blurred by an inside. There being no face or back, [nor] “two individuals” are able to see the same. Minds, and eyes, are alike. “Likeness” describes “a human being”meeting “a human being.”

                    But I'm just blurred.

                              Thank you Shingen. Having been away and not sitting for a week, it is good to be reminded and inspired about the basics of this practice of shikantaza.
