Today's Daily Dharma from Tricycle:
Before the rain stops we hear a bird
We must have beginner's mind, free from possessing anything, a mind that knows everything is in flowing change. Nothing exists but momentarily in its present form and color. One thing flows into another and cannot be grasped. Before the rain stops we hear a bird. Even under the heavy snow we see snowdrops and some new growth. In the East I saw rhubarb already. In Japan in the spring we eat cucumbers.
~ Shunryu Suzuki, Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind; from Everyday Mind, edited by Jean Smith, a Tricycle book
