KONGO ZEN –INDIA
.
“Soshin Wazuru
Bekarazu.”
Never forget your beginner’s
heart.
“Ashta Wa
Ashta Ni, Kaze
Ga Fuku.”
Let tomorrow’s wind blow
tomorrow.
“Ichigo Ichie.”
One Life. One meeting. To be
in the moment.
“Jibin No
Kokkoro
O’migaku.”
To polish one’s heart.
“Naanaa Korobi
Yaa Oki.”
Even if you fall 7 times, get up
the 8th time.
“Ikken Tasho.”
One fist can help many out of
trouble.
“Heijo Shin.”
Everyday mind.
“Kyakka
Shoko.”
Look at your feet.
“Samu.”
Cleanliness
“Gassho Rei.”
Above man no man.
PURITY
By not doing evil, I purify myself. Purity and impurity
comes from within and others cannot purify my heart.
STRENGTH
I am my own refuge and source of strength. On whom
may I rely if not myself.
DISCIPLINE
With self wisely disciplined, I find a truly rare and
precious fountain of strength.
Mindful that our spirits come from dharma and our bodies from our parents,
we acknowledge our debts and express our gratitude by applying ourselves
to the full.
