Today's Daily Zen:

My mind is inclined to quiet;

Outside of things,

I lodge in the brush.

The sense of the mountains is best

When you reach their depths;

The source of the valley stream, distant,

Is naturally purified.

For the rest of my life,

All that�s missing is death;

All thoughts and worries

Are settled already.

Recluses should leave no tracks;

People stop asking their names.

- Wen-siang (1210-1280)
