Are you dynamic or static?
What wisdom have you gained, and how have you increased your capacity to love?
----
On Hearing Jun the Buddhist Monk from Shu Play his Lute
The monk from Shu with his green silk lute-case,
Walking west down Omei Mountain,
Has brought me by one touch of the strings
The breath of pines in a thousand valleys.
I hear him in the cleansing brook,
I hear him in the icy bells;
And I feel no change though the mountain darken
And cloudy autumn heaps the sky.
-- The ancient poet Li Bai
