HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 сен 2024
- Ryōkan Taigu (1758-1831) was a quiet and unconventional Sōtō Zen Buddhist monk who lived much of his life as a hermit. Ryōkan is remembered for his poetry and calligraphy, which present the essence of Zen life. He renounced the world at an early age to train at nearby Sōtō Zen temple Kōshō-ji, refusing to meet with or accept charity from his family.
The poems read have been taken from Spirit Awake website and can be found here: www.spiritawak...
Music: Fumio Miyashita - 'White Morning'
Rodrigo Rodriguez - Japanese Shakuhachi Flute

I cannot hear enough of this simple Zen monk. Emptiness personified. You are a Blessing dear Samaneri. 🙏🏽😇🧡
Finding heaven on earth. Sounds a bit like Jesus... yep, this was amazing.

Alternate translation:
Early spring
The landscape is tinged with the first
fresh hints of green
Now I take my wooden begging bowl
And wander carefree through town
The moment the children see me
They scamper off gleefully to bring their friends
They’re waiting for me at the temple gate
Tugging from all sides so I can barely walk
I leave my bowl on a white rock
Hang my pilgrim’s bag on a pine tree branch
First we duel with blades of grass
Then we play ball
While I bounce the ball, they sing the song
Then I sing the song and they bounce the ball
Caught up in the excitement of the game
We forget completely about the time
Passersby turn and question me:
"Why are you carrying on like this?"
I just shake my head without answering
Even if I were able to say something
how could I explain?
Do you really want to know the meaning of it all?
This is it! This is it!
As long as I don’t aim,
I won’t miss.
With the catalpa bow
I shoot an arrow
toward the open sky.

Samaneri you will never know how much love and gratitude I have for the gifts that you offer out to the world. I am deeply grateful, thank you 🙏
o how i love my dear older brother Ryokan's words, thank you so much!
Me too. His words are like a cool mountain spring and the warmth of a gentle sun at the same time. They resonate within my heart at the deepest level. Blessed Venerable Ryokan 🙏🏼
@@SamaneriJayasara I so very much appreciate what you are providing with these recordings from all faith backgrounds. A blessed thing for all of humanity and surely all who listen. I stumbled onto Master Ryokan years ago, immediately his life and writings filled me with great joy! I have never had a human guru or master to learn from, but this blessed, simple, humble man is my dearest friend, so wonderful to listen to you read his writings... many blessings to you dear one, feel like I know you!! stu
@@stukarlin8964 Beautiful! Indeed we have known each other for an eternity Stu ❤️
Heartfelt gratitude for this much needed sustenance. The master's words are the night blooming jasmine and the sounds of the forest. Your voice is the soft evening breeze that carries them gently to my soul 💕🙏💐
This is of such divine beauty and Truth 🙏🏼 tears roll over my cheeks onto the wooden table
Boundless gratitude
In gassho

Namaskar Mother was waiting About Ryokan. Like a fool,like a dunce, body and mind completely droped off! Thank you 💐💐❤️
Good art, music, literature, and poetry is able to make abstract intellectual and spiritual concepts come to life and even can replace traditional religions for some.

As I read the comments below, I see that you have become as if the Taylor Swift of Aussie Buddhist Nuns. Then I find myself beginning to remember what it is like to be young again. Someday i may even listen to a taylor swift song, but not yet....for now, listening to the great masters is more than enough.
💙🙏
Ah, look. The tea has grown cold, an echo of two quenched thirsts.🙏
love
Ryokan 🌼🌈❤️
Wishing for a transcription.

Poetry is wonderful. Overly aggressive advertising renders it unlistenable. Is titled for “meditation” 😂😂
Please see my pinned comment above for what the issue is and how you can rectify it from your end.
This has multiple adds. Just FYI
Please view this short video that I made recently to understand and rectify from your end: ruclips.net/video/n1t3dHrpnUA/видео.html&ab_channel=SamaneriJayas%C4%81ra-WisdomoftheMasters
This could be so beautiful but the intermittent commercials are appalling.
Dear Listener, this recording has some copyrighted music in the video so YT plays ADS to collect revenue for the record company. I have no control over the ads that appear as it is all RUclips placing ads for the music companies as I used copyrighted material in this old recording.

You and me are alike.
I used to be bothered by the ads.. now they are just funny reminders or even challenges. Sometimes the contrast is so blatant it's hilarious.
It can’t be helped.
Thank You
