Weekend Zen, November 30 and December 1

The lure of the distant and difficult is deceptive. 

The great opportunity is where you are. 

Do not despise your own place and hour. 

Every place is under the stars, 

every place is of the world.

~ John Burroughs

I go to nature to be

and to have my 

senses put in order.

Weekend Zen, May 6-7

To find the universal elements enough;

to find the air and the water exhilarating;

 to be refreshed by a morning walk or

an evening saunter...to be thrilled by the

stars at night; to be elated over a bird's

nest or a wildflower in spring, these are

some of the rewards of the simple life.

~ John Burroughs

Weekend Zen, April 30 - May 1

The lesson which life repeats and 

constantly enforces is, "Look under foot." 

You are always nearer the divine and the

true sources of your power than you think...

Every place is under the stars, 

every place is the center of the world.

~ John Burroughs

Weekend Zen, June 23-24

The great opportunity is where you are.

Every place is under the stars,

every place is the center of the world.

~ John Burroughs

The smallest deed is better

Daily Zen - Tuesday, September 13

Nature teaches more than she preaches. There are no sermons in stones. It is easier to get a spark out of a stone than a moral.
