The Temple of Warm Harmony QUOTES

1 " Space-time is an illusion.
So is the notion of finite bodies.
It's why, whenever I see you, I ask:
'How's your world?'...
...because I know
we carry infinite worlds inside of us
and in one of them, a great spinning star-flung song is trying to wake us up again
to the Great Alliance that binds us. "

3 " I used to keep a strong scaffolding in place.
It separated Pure Land from Zen
Zen from Dao
Dharma quarantined from the
way of mountain spirits.

With a sudden glance
in the middle of a storm,
the bottom dropped out
the scaffolding fell
along with my mind
and all of these nectars
poured into the same vat. "

5 " The doorway to the Dao is at the end of your toes. Step through. "
