Zen
is not
a
religion
.
it
is
not merely
a
philosophy
.
It is
a unique
way
of
living simply
.
with
meditation,
values
and
virtues
.
Zen
has
been
called
“the religion without a god”
which respects
the divinity
within all
. . .
valuing
.
harmony
.
tranquility
.
purity
and
reverence
.
my own
true nature
tells me
in
my living mind
:
“Our lives
are so fleeting,
floating motes
:
dust
on the light
of the Universe’s
dark canvas
:
that is
the night
of
the soul
:
and still,
we dance
in
the mystery
:
growing
our te
[virtue] “
