I would like to thank those who have, over the years, given their guidance and counsel and friendship: in particular, Hobart and Jean Mitchell and Jacqueline Janes; more recently, Peter Matthiessen. Words of Eihei Dogen come to mind:
Picture 4Picture 5
This old plum tree is boundless. All at once its blossoms open and of itself the fruit is born. It forms spring; it forms winter. It arouses wind and wild rain. It is the head of a patch-robed monk; it is the eyeball of an ancient buddha. It becomes grass and trees; it becomes pure fragrance. Its whirling, miraculous transformation has no limit.... Blossoming is the old plum tree's offering.
